This is a gorgeous addition to our "Christmas Tree Room" that we just started working on. It's a nice size, though for our purposes I do wish it had a slightly larger diameter, it's not terribly small either. Assembly was a little hard to figure out - the leg placement was an interesting jigsaw puzzle and I'm glad I had read other comments about not fully tightening anything until the very end as you do have to do some tweaking to get everything to line up as you add each leg. I appreciated that there were very few parts to assemble, though the end caps on the legs could have been attached already and removed the need for a hammer and towel to insert those. 

Pros: Style, value
Cons: Assembly
