I purchased this for my sewing room.   It was $20.00 cheaper the very DAY after I brought it.  I was annoyed by that, but I love the table, so it is what it is.  The instructions to assemble  the table were surprisingly good.   It is 30" tall, so about an inch or so more than a standard dining room table.   It is a NICE table.   Heavy and sturdy.   The wood look is beautiful, but I immediately covered the top with cutting mats so my machine and cutting tools wouldn't scratch it.
