This is an absolutely beautiful table. I am very happy I decided to go with this one. I did see in other reviews people were saying the table top is uneven and can snag cloth, however, it is no where near as bad as they made it seem. It is flat enough to not be uneven, but enough to give it some character and it is smooth, not rough. The color is beautiful. It took about 45 mins for my husband and I to complete the assembly, which was fairly easy compared to other pieces of furniture we have bought. The ONLY thing I am frustrated about and reason for 4 stars is the large chips of wood missing from the top 4 support beams as seen in the photo! For the amount I paid, that should not have happened. However, not worth sending back. I was able to use black sharpie marker and you cannot even tell the difference.
