I chose this table because it was small enough to fill a narrow spot in my entryway. I was looking for an industrial, weathered looking console table, that was small enough and in my budget. This one was the perfect size, but unfinished wood. I gave it a makeover using Miniwax Weathered Oak and I rubbed a darker stain, Special Walnut, on the edges and corners. It came out great and matches my other furniture perfectly! It was pretty simple to put together. I wish it had come with drilled holes in the legs and board for the bottom shelf. The wood is really hard, so it’s a little tough to screw in the screws for the brackets to hold the shelf. Otherwise I love it! See my before & after pics.
