Nice coffee table for the money.  It is solid wood- not super high quality, super nice wood but still not mdf.  It was easy to assemble- a tip: turn the pieces on their sides to make assembly a bit easier.  It took me about 20 minutes.  My only real complaint about it is that it isn’t super sturdy.   Even with all the screws tightened as tight as I can get them, it still wobbles when my 3 year old flyweight daughter decides to be a ballerina and makes it her “stage”.  Yes, I know, not what it was intended for but still be I don’t feel that it should move back and forth. Overall good value for the money.
