My husband and I love our new coffee table! It was very easy to put together and it is very sturdy. We will be staining it- we just haven't had time yet. It is the perfect height, length and width for our large sectional. We are so pleased with this product and could not believe the price! It arrived quickly and in a nice secure package. This coffee table truly is wonderful and you can personalize it to make it your own. Buy it, you'll love it! =)
