My husband proclaimed this is "the best purchase ever made by his wife". What does he love about it? 1) he didn't have to put anything together; it arrived as one piece and 2) it's obviously made of wood pallets or other reclaimed wood and therefore a responsible and sustainable purchase. I love how the distressed/weathered look matches our French country style and fits perfectly against the armrest of our living room couch. The table's bottom shelf adds storage options and as long as you measured properly, there's no reason to be disappointed by this piece!
