I think the manufacturer got carried away distressing this table.  Was not happy at all with the marks on the table top.  The sides and legs had marks too. There were at least 3 kinds of marks.  Except for that big problem, the table is just what I wanted, which was a solid hardwood table expandable to seat 10 people but small enough to not take up lots of space in between times.  Not hard to assemble.  Wayfair customer service really shone in their handling of the situation.  Very impressive.
