The table is beautiful, but the bottom of the top arrived scratched due to the manufacturing packaging. Luckily, it’s at the bottom, where it’s not visible. The top has really nice veining, and the finish is a nice dark walnut.

We needed a smaller table to use in our sunroom. This is a nice small table, and the chairs fit better around it because it is a pedestal. The packaging was great except for a large scratch on the bottom of the table top. But it won't show so it worked out fine. The instructions were fairly easy to use, but it takes two people to put it together. The metal plates that hold it together are really heavy. The pedestal is solid wood which is beautiful, however the top is a composite, so we will need to be more careful.

The table was received damaged. On the underside of the tabletop piece, the center thread insert was ripped out and the wood around was splintered. This made it impossible to put the table together. I contacted Wayfair, and got a replacement table sent…which we received with the exact same damage! Needless to say, both the original and replacement tables have been returned, and I am opting not to attempt this a third time. The damage is due to the way it is packaged by the company for shipping.

Buyer Beware ...Update - I ordered a second table after customer service guaranteed the table would be 29.6" per listing but once again, the table is not a dining table but a side table and not as listed. It is only 27.5" high. Buyer beware. The table I received was only 27.5" high not as advertised 29.6". It was unusable as a dining or work table.
