Alright. Here we go. Most of us read the reviews, cross our fingers and toes, and clutch our lucky charms when daring to order furniture online. Personally, I hate shopping in real life so if I can Amazon it, I do, but choosing a table from a few pictures and hundreds of reviews.... well, that feels downright risky. If you are reading this, you are either just beginning your search or you have narrowed it down to two or three tables, and this one is still in the running. BUY. IT. First of all, there's the price. Not many wood tables will beat it except perhaps a glorified card table with laminate and folding legs. I actually purchased this as a board game table for our basement bar/rec room. Honestly though, it is SO DANG LOVELY AND STURDY that I would not hesitate to use it in a small dining room or eat-in kitchen. Secondly, this came within a three-hour window of my choosing, on time, exactly when they said it would, delivered by two very nice men, and set down just inside the front door as I instructed. And the packaging? I have never seen better care in packaging! Even the styrofoam was wrapped in plastic to keep all those annoying bits and pieces of static nuisances from going everywhere as you unpack. This table was not only well protected, so was everything within five feet of the box! Thirdly --- and this is important---- I am not known as a particularly patient woman. I am stubborn and impatient. My husband was gone when this arrived and I didn't feel like waiting for him so I did it myself. (Big deal? Well, yeah, kinda is.) I am 65 years young and this table had to go downstairs. I emptied the box of everything but the table top which I left in the box for its own protection. Then, having made it at least a few pounds lighter, I pushed and shoved and pulled and tugged and manhandled (woman-handled) that puppy down the stairs to its future home. Point four: the hardware is well-, clearly labeled, includes spare parts, an allen wrench, and a small ratchet wrench. You don't need anything else. I had the legs on within 10 minutes, tops. Honestly, the hardest part was getting up off the floor four times as I worked my way around it, installing the legs. (As I already explained.... I'm 65 years young. My peers will understand.) Anyway. BOOM! I am woman! Hear me roar! I sat it upright and admired it. So point five-- it is beautiful! Truly, it is! (I'm suddenly rethinking whether I want beer and wings distracting from its beauty!) Bottom line, I have been an Amazon customer since way back in the beginning when all Mr. Bezos sold was books from his garage and I have never been happier with my purchase --from beginning to end (cost, delivery, ease of assembly, quality of the product) than I am with this table. I will not hesitate to check out this vendor's wares for future needs. Now, the only thing my dear husband will have to do when he gets home, is close his switchblade, which I used to open the box. I never remember how to do that.  Read Less
