I got this table yesterday. Not really difficult to put together. Considering the low price I wasn't expecting much,but I really love it. I got the dark gray colored one and the color is so pretty. I collect large glass bottles and I have some of my bottles sitting on the lower shelf. I am very happy with this purchase. It's not solid wood but for the price it looks very nice. I was worried about it being 
stable since it is so tall and not very wide. No problems with placing it behind my couch. If I had small children in the house it would be possible for them to pull it over but it seems to be very stable. I am very glad I chose this one.
