This table is beautiful and came looking just like the pictures. The only thing we've noticed within just a few days of having it in our kitchen and being used by our kids is that the stain comes off extremely easy... I don't know what this means it will look like after a few months. There is no protective coat on the table, so we may need to end up putting something on ourselves. It's still a great table for the price, but be aware that the stain is likely to rub off from simple cleaning (I only used a damp rag with dish soap). 

The spot where the stain is removed in the picture is from my son spilling some milk.
