This is a very solid, rugged table. It is very heavy! It was easy to assemble taking minimal time. The reclaimed white has a bit of a gray tint which adds a distressed look. The metal underneath the table gives it a bit of a modern look. I think this is the perfect table for someone looking for modern farmhouse decor. My only worry is that food may fall into the grooves on the top of the table. So far it has been easy to clean. I would highly recommend this table!
