This table is absolutely stunning. Perfect centerpiece for our small/medium sized kitchen. We use it as a working table/conversation table, and could easily fit 4 counter height chairs, but we just prefer to keep two so the room is less crowded. So easy to put together - I did it myself well under an hour. I did try the barnwood color first, but it was much too dark for our kitchen, though that one was stunning as well and I would have loved to keep it. Customer service was awesome helping me get the tables exchanged. This table is awesome!
