I love this table! It came perfectly packaged with no damages and all I'd need to assemble it.  The assembly instructions were easy to follow, so I was able to put it together quickly by myself.  (I am a 61 yr old woman.)  It is actually quite elegant looking and sturdy for such a simple and inexpensive table.  I chose this table after much searching, because I needed a narrower base for the small space I have, and it was the only square pedestal table I had seen.  It will also accomodate a wheelchair.  I highly recommend this table!
