The bones are great, it's a good, solid table. Feels strong and solid. The Brawny Man of tables, if you will. The finish though, I just can't. It's so bad that I thought I accidentally bought a veneered table. The only thing I can liken it to is the children's bedroom furniture I grew up in. So, anyway, with it being an otherwise completely legit piece of furniture, I've decided to strip the finish, butcher block condition it, and let it do it's thing. Pine is oily, shouldn't dry out and crack. Also there was some hardware missing, and Great Offer Stock handled it like champs. so what was a 3 star review initially became a 4 star. I can't give it the 5th because I am going to have to put elbow grease in to make it look anywhere near decent.
