LOVE this table and everyone that's come by is in love too. It was easy to assemble but because it's so heavy, I needed a second set of hand for flipping it over. I was worried by ordering the longer table that it would look too big in our space, but it works out fine and could easily sit more than 10 people. My only concern on this will be the fact that it doesn't have a sealed top and there's small grooves between the boards, so it could make clean up with kids a little more difficult as crumbs could collect. I'm going to put a clear PVC mat on top just to prevent that from happening and make wiping up messes easier because I just don't see my 7yo being as cautious as I'd like. :) We paired it with the matching bench and the Saint-Gratien dining chairs in green plus 2 of the Fant Curve Upholstered chairs in Laguna and it looks amazing.
