It looks very nice, but the table top came to us with several noticeable scratches. We would rather just stain over it than deal with the hassle of returning it, so we didn't complain. Also, one of the chair leg supports broke. Some one did put some of their weight on it, not all, but I wouldn't think it'd be enough to break. I could be wrong. Maybe it was a fluke, a defective piece? Or maybe this set is a little cheaper than I gave it credit for? Either way, still looks nice and gets the job done.
