In spite of a fiasco with the delivery service that resulted in my table sitting at the facility for a month before it was delivered, I love this table. I ordered the black and it is very sturdy. The set was easy to put together (I actually did it myself when my husband was at work).  I like how the extension to the table fits underneath and you can’t really even tell the table extends. With my former table, it was very obvious that there was a leaf in the table and it was very ugly. This one is perfect! I have already experienced what some of the others were saying about crumbs getting caught in the grooves, making it slightly harder to clean but it is simple enough to wedge the dish rag into the  cracks or blow them out with compressed air. Overall, I love this table. I looks great in our space and has solid construction.
