This table is GORGEOUS!  The top is VERY distressed so brace yourself.  We have 2 kiddos- 10 & 6.  If you are concerned about excessive crumbs or dirt- this table may not be for you.  I cover it with a dollar store tablecloth for any crafts or play dough sessions.  It is super solid and HEAVY.  Hubby put it together (comes in 2 pieces) easily.  I helped him lift it.  This table should last for generations.  Perfect modern farmhouse treasure!
