This console table does serve the purpose in our master bedroom, but it is not great quality so I would not recommend using it in a family room or where you might need to use the drawer frequently.  Definitely not suitable for books, but it works for an accent table.  As other reviewers mentioned, the stickers to put over the screw holes are disappointing and it would be much better to have some gray plastic "buttons" to pop over those holes instead.  I think this console table would be better priced at $59.99 due to the quality.
