My husband and I had been searching tables for a while and were having the hardest time balancing quality on a budget. I saw a review on this table that alluded to "pottery barn look" for a better price and good quality, which sold me as that was exactly what I was looking for. It may not be AS nice as PB, but it's a beautiful table and very well made/sturdy. What I love best that it's simple enough to let other pieces in the dining room give a lot of character. Definitely recommend!

Pros: wonderful value, well built, nice color (a tad darker than picture, in a good way)
