I think the table looks great and you can’t beat the price for the size and look! My biggest complaint is that the table does not have a smooth surface. If you got over it with your hand it’s a bit rough and the table has given me a few splinters already. I don’t feel like I can comfortably enjoy the table because of that. It’s a great price but I don’t think it’s worth.
We bought this table in November with high hopes based on reviews. The table is exactly the style we wanted and fits our space well. However, the finish is terrible, the wire brush finish means grooves on the surface which are impossible to clean and very easy to scuff. I reached out to ask for a recommendation for a sealant (to help remedy the groove issues) and was told they couldn’t recommend one due to liability concerns. Stuck with a table that’s just not practical and we’ll likely replace within the year.
Good quality, heavy wood furniture. The chairs were simple to put together but the table was a bit of a challenge. We had to use clamps to even out one of the planks that didn’t lay flat at the end. Overall it was a good experience and it’s stunning to look at when completed.
Shipping wasn’t super quick but reasonable. The table is very sturdy and easy to assemble. Some pieces are slightly off, but not enough to notice from far. Great purchase.
For the amount of money spent on this table, it is unreal that they don’t organize and label the screws for you. There’s multiple that look very similar, but if used in the wrong spot it is too long and will splinter the wood on the other side without you realizing. They just send you a gallon bag filled with miscellaneous screws. I ruined our table because of this. Specifically there are two types of screws that are the exact same diameter and fit the same holes, but one is too long and will destroy the wood. I am so dumbfounded they could be this careless with the labeling/instructions. I’ll give it 2 stars because the table itself is nice if properly assembled.
