The table is cute. It is tippy as can be expected for a 3 legged table. Not for toddlers who like to climb. It would be good for placing plants on. Our very heavy cats do not have issue with it being tippy but the 25lb kid is another story. It came well packaged but filthy. It was dirty inside and I had thoroughly cleanse it. The top of the table wiped down well but picks up fingerptints very quickly. The holes were a little off on the assembly but with a little muscle worked out just fine. The brackets seem sturdy. The instructions were poor but it was pretty straightforward truly.
