I really like the look of the table and it feels like a solid construction. It was easy to assemble and I thought it would work great. However as you can seen in the picture, after the 1st use water was able to get under the veneer and now there is a bubble where the wood underneath swelled. Obviously I can't give this a higher rating bc a table should be properly sealed, no water was left sitting on the table top for any amount of time. This was simply a small bit that was left in the groove after the table was wiped down. I am really disappointed and do not recommend this design.
