This is a nice, heavy table.  Perfect size for my small space, and it was not at all difficult to put together - I did it alone in less than an hour.  As some others have noted, it appears that it will scratch easily - I have had it less than a week and there is already a tiny scratch on top ( I live alone and have used it once so far).  But for the money this is a great value.  The matching chairs are much nicer than I anticipated they would be and very, very comfortable - which was a pleasant surprise.  I would recommend this set.  p.s.  Shipping was very fast and the items were very well packed.  Overall I am impressed.
