this tale is sturdy, it is easy to assemble and works great. wish it was stained on the inside corners since depending on the angle it shows. It can chip easy so we will probably re-stain it ( we have had it for a year as our main table)  it is a functional table for 2 it is a good size for what we need, we can comfortably eat and it fits several plates with ease and fits 2 lap tops one on each side.
