I'm really happy with this table. I was a little nervous about ordering such a s big piece of furniture online, but it honestly looks even better in person. The solid wood is probably my favorite part. You can really see the natural grain and little variations across the tabletop. It give the table a warm feel that you don't get with veneer or engineered wood. The top feels nice and smooth, but you can tell it's real wood. The whole table has a good weight to it and just feels well made. I also really like the pedestal base because it gives the table a classic look without looking too bulky. Putting them together was pretty easy as well. My husband and I had them assembled in about 30 minutes, and once everything was tightened, it felt very solid with no wobbling. It fits our dining space really well and works great for everyday use, like coffee in the morning, family dinners, and pretty much everything. So far, it has held up excellently and it definitely feels like a table we'll be using for a long time.
