Love my new table. It was packaged well and came quickly. Very strong and sturdy. Love that I can easily crank up or down. My husband likes to work on couch, so we need a coffee table that can be higher than what is usually offered. There are slight imperfections, but this is what we love about the piece. If you want a consistent product, handmade is not a route you should purchase. As the tabletop (wood) has slight boughs in some areas. It is welded beautifully, and was easy to assemble. Love this purchase. Make sure you look at dimensions, as this is a large piece. We travel quite a bit, so this ties in well with pieces we have collected over the years. The style can blend with urban, eclectic, country or industrial. Really is a versatile table.
