This table is a great deal. The top is darker than the pic Wayfair provides, but it is a good contrast with the black base. I did not want an all black table. The planking on top is uneven. Your kids want be able to do homework on this table top! Probably a good thing...Note that it is wider than most rectangular tables. I had purchased the chairs in the pic back awhile from Wayfair. They all were arm chairs. I was unable to get two arms chairs under the long side but that is okay. I am using a bench on the other side and will be able to pull the fourth chair up with the other under for plenty of room to seat six. Missed the first delivery date and the table was held for awhile. Went out on a second attempt that I had scheduled but was unable to be there. Was worried that being on the truck three times for delivery it might have gotten damaged but it was perfectly fine when it arrived the third attempt. Thank you Wayfair for having my back!!! Happy New Year!
