I like the wood-look finish and that it complements the other woods in the room. I also like the open base with metal legs. This coffee table was easy to put together. My only concern is that it is not as sturdy as I hoped. I am able to put my feet up, etc. but I worry that my children will sit/stand/climb onto it and it won’t last long. Other than that, I am happy with the selection and how it fits my living room.
