Love this table! The color is gorgeous (medium-colored pine with some grey) and the size is great for a large living room. The table is not raw natural wood...it has a coating on it so that if you spill you don't have to worry about staining. I bought it with the matching Airelle End Table and they look great together. I had liked a similar coffee table at Restoration Hardware but this one was half the price. Needless to say, I don't regret this purchase at all!
