We love our new kitchen table and have received many compliments. It is sturdy and beautiful. It was delivered with no damages and the white glove service was well with the cost.  It did not take the two men that long to put it together so if you are handy, understanding it is heavy, go for it.  I would recommend this table. It does have a subtle grey wash on the wood and it gives it a lot of character. It comfortably seats six.
