After reading negative reviews I bought this table anyway. It is more decorative than useful. It holds a little lamp and I store the remote controls. The drawers are very flimsy so you do not want to store any heavy items in it. The finish is poor. If you dust it, the lint sticks to it because the finish is rough like an emery board. Overall, it meets my low expectation.  The finish is very dark, more an expresso than as pictured. 

Pros: Easy to assemble, good design, dimensions perfect for side coffee table.
Cons: Finish, color not as pictured, flimsy
