It looks fantastic and appears to be more expensive than it really is. Wasn't too hard to put together, but I would recommend getting some help for lining up the crisscrossed beams. I did have a small chip in the top upon delivery and because the table top piece is quite thin, the table will wobble and lean if you place too much weight on (slight give when leaning elbows on). I do believe this can be corrected if you know a little bit about woodworking and can attach a stronger base board and screw it into the table top platform. Also it is very dark, but has a slight reddish tone and a glossy finish. I added a picture that will hopefully give you an idea. 

Pros: Looks fantastic and good price.
Cons: Chip in top, not as sturdy as I would like
