This is a functional work table for me.  I like that the top is very smooth and has the place for cords to drop through.  Originally I thought I would use it for my laptop, but it is quite streamlined and industrial looking so it didn't fit my living room decor.  However, it is great for my craft room and the cost is so good for this.  I am using it as a work table to cut out fabrics for projects and to use for my sewing machine and laminator.  It looks very solid and wasn't too hard to put together.  It was missing a hole (drilled hole) but we fixed that.  There were no assembly directions with it but I went back to the website for WayFair and the directions were in a pdf there. I think it would be great in a childs room for computers or games as well, it seems fairly indestructable!
