I'm really trying to like this table...it's a lot lighter than pictured, I get a lot of compliments, I saved the box and might return it, but when I mention that to my family, they say "no, we really like it" so maybe I'm missing something? I just know it wasn't exactly what I was hoping for, but I'm giving it a chance. I do like the size and shape, it's pretty sturdy, , it doesn't look like real wood though, Pro: It was sooo easy to assemble con: too light/white washed
