Although the table top is advertised as “solid wood,” it is actually primarily comprised of thin strips of pine glued on top of particle board. And the particle board is not stained so you can see between the strips and see the particle board. It looks nice from a distance (and looks like the picture) but feels cheap (not solid). The picture with this review is of one of the top pieces of “solid wood” sitting on top of the unstained particle board. They should have at least tried to hide the particle board by staining it.  I bought some walnut stain myself to hide the particle board so it looks much better than when received.
