We are using this stool as a side table and it fits our space and decor perfectly. It does have some very minor imperfections: you can see a slight seem in the middle of the table, where they welded the two halves together, and there is a *slight* dent in the side (which could be from shipping or could have occurred very shortly after received - I do have young kids). But for what we need it for, I like it!

Pros: NO assembly, great size for multiple applications (side table, stool), lightweight and portable
Cons: Not SUPER sturdy
