Very nice , modern style. The edges around it give you the appearance it is damaged at first but it is just part of the style, distressed look but the colour is still black. It is solid when assembled, not shaky.  It is black in appearance but my lighting is not reflecting that.
The only issue is it came with an inch long scratch near the middle but we will apply expresso stain to cover it.
Other than the scratch, it looks nice. Now I need the chairs. It does come as a set (black chairs and bench) included but I thought  being expresso, it may be too dark so am going with neutral cloth chairs to offset the black.
