The table is the perfect size that I needed for my space. It's the perfect footprint for a smaller home or apartment. The metal inlay and textured top elevate the piece, and the fluted base is lovely. The only reason I wont give it five stars is because I question how durable this table will be. The teak wood used is a softer grade. If you plan to use this table daily, I would highly recommend getting a piece of glass cut to slow the wear & tear. We're also using upholstered chairs with the table to reduce the odds of damaging the pedestal when the chairs are pushed in.
