I got this table to be my entryway table in my apartment. It took me less than 30 minutes to assemble, which is big for me--I'm  not good at assembling things! The wood is excellent quality, and the convenience of the drawers lets me put my keys, mail, and receipts in them with ease when I'm coming in. It also goes well with my "rustic/chic" look of my apartment. Love it!
