This table was very difficult to put together. The instructions are not very good. The screwdriver that came with it was not enough to screw thru the raw wood (not pre-drilled). Its made of a good sturdy wood. I ordered the black color and it is true to the color. I think the manufacturer should do a video or something to show how to put this together. Otherwise, it works great as a coffee table and also you can pull it up to eat or work on your computer so its pretty handy to have.
