This is a most fabulous table!  I wanted a table that didn't take up a lot of visual space in a smallish bedroom.  I too eyed one similar at West Elm.  I like the hue of this tables metal better.  Not so 'in your face' brass.  The tones of this table are subtle.  Plus I believe this one is a bit taller.  I unpacked the box and checked to make sure the glass was intact and then counted the parts in the box compared to the instructions.  Assembly was easy.  Looks great.
