I had some concerns purchasing this table given some of the negative reviews, but I wanted something made of real wood (which it is) and inexpensive (which it definitely is). After spending less than an hour assembling it, I have absolutely no complaints. The table is sturdy, attractive, and very functional. The only tiny qualm I have is that the sole plywood piece (which is the bottom of the lift top storage area) is a bit flimsy. We dont store weighty items there, mostly redundant remotes, game controllers, etc. so I dont see it being an issue, but there it is. Otherwise, this table is solid. I really like the locking function of the lift top; it makes eating or working at the table easier with no sway or instability. The table surface itself looks like a finger joint butcher block. I expect it to hold up well to everyday wear given that it is solid wood. I went with the natural color and luckily didnt find any scratches or marks. Overall, Im extremely pleased with this table and would recommend it.
Im super impressed with this $150 table!
