I prchased the 19" table. I use it for hand-building clay and occasionally other crafts. It is is VERY sturdy and spacious. I can spread out and have several projects going at once. I also like the light light finish of the butcher block top contrasting with the black steel frame. It was very easy to assemble. I just needed helping turning it right side up after aasembly;it is really heavy. I really love this table!
