I really like the table.  I have been looking at it for several months without going the final step to purchase it until recently.  It arrived on time, within a week to 10 days.  I began assembling the table and the final piece was defective.  The table was solid without that particular piece in place, so I went ahead and began using it.  I requested a replacement piece from the company and after about 2 weeks, it arrived.  No defect; it installed perfectly.  This is my dining room table, now.  Pushed against the wall when not needed, taking up little space.  Easy enough to pull out and extend the drop leaf when necessary.  Perfect for my space.  4 stars only because of the need to replace the one piece.
