I bought this table for my living room. Day to day, we use it for our computers and devices. But when we are entertaining, it becomes a great spot for guests to socialize and eat. The materials are a good quality, and the assembly was relatively easy. The chrome does tend to show fingerprints but I also have 3 young children. I didn't buy the coordinating stools. Instead I purchased, the Cosmopolitan Leather Counter Stools in gray. The look great with this table.
