We bought this for our family room, and it's turned out the be an excellent find. It's terribly simple to put it together, I don't think my husband even used tools. It's solid wood and very heavy to move for a coffee table. I think the value on it could be better, but you still won't find a solid wood contruction for this price. The only real downside is that it marks easily. We have to be careful to use coasters when sitting at it and it scratches easily. I wouldn't recommend it for a house with young children, but I'm still excited about my buy.

I've had this table for about a year, and it has held up quite well. I was worried when it arrived with a slightly out of square leg attachment, but the bolts went in correctly and it looks quite nice. I've been lazy and haven't kept it waxed like they recommend, and I would suggest that you do it once or twice a year just to keep the top looking nice. All in all, it's a good table for the money.

As always, my table came quickly from Overstock....I am constantly amazed at how fast "O" ships. This table is extremely solid....refreshing to NOT have veneers in this day and age. The assembly was fairly quick, but I had to try, try and try again to get the bolts to insert into the legs---assistance was required. However in the end, the tight fit was actually advantageous providing increased stability to the table. I used a rubber ended mallet to assist in getting the wood inserts into place to maximize the firm hold of the bottom shelf. The wood is beautiful, the piece solid. I have not noted any issue with scratching or marring of the top surface as some other reviewer had noted....but I have warned all house occupants to use care. It has a rustic feel about it, yet it is solid construction. The only appearance issue I had was the notable appearance of the supporting bolts under the tabletop surface. Also in a perfect world, I would have the table be twice the width for my living room that has both a sofa and a love seat as it does not suit both as a coffee table, so I eneded up using it as a bench. One reviewers suggestion to use it as television stand, I found intriguing, but the table is not very high and could seemingly put the television too low, unless one has an enormous screen.

It looks great!!! However you may have to take it apart and put it back together a few times b/c it doesn't come with instructions. Here is a tip. There are numbers on some of the parts. Be sure that the numbers that are alike are on the same side.

The table looks nice in the picture but the pieces don't necessarily fit well together because of buckling - almost as if the wood was either not fully cured or stored properly. I can also feel where he wood was joined on the top - I hope it doesn't separate!!!! Maybe I should have gone with the table I really wanted which was over $500.

The Asian Bench is beautiful! I love the simple lines and rich deep brown stain on the wood - which has really lovely grain. I am actually using my bench as a media stand to hold my 50" projection TV and it looks great. One of the reasons I like this piece is that it is so versatile.

It was a breeze to put together, is very solid and the wood is beautiful. We are very pleased with the table.

To my fellow Overstockers, It's a beautiful piece of furniture but I had some problems assembling. One out of four bolts didn't screw in as easy as the first three. The last one only went a quarter of the way in. I'm not that concerned because its underneath, out of sight. The only other comment I have is about instructions. I to had to print a copy of the picture from the website to assemble. Overall I'm happy with the piece.

I second everything in the previous reviews. It's exactly what we were looking for to put in a very long, thin, Asian-inspired room. No other coffee table would fit. It was very easy to assemble, except that it came with NO instructions or even a picture, so print out a photo to remind yourself what your end goal is! Ours arrived with a dent in one corner, but not enough to warrant sending it back. The main warning is that the other reviewers are not kidding when they say it is EASY TO SCRATCH. We have decided that we are going for the "distressed" look with ours, since that's what we had after about 3 days. Luckily, the rustic construction lends itself to that look anyway.

This table was really easy to assemble, we put it together in about 10 minutes. The design is super. The high-gloss finish does lend itself to smudges and scratches, so don't let the kids play with their hotwheels on this one. Our only complaint is that the finish on our table is a little cloudy in places, very rough on one corner, and the pegs securing the bottom shelf to the table are stained but not polyurethaned. It is a bit more rustic than we had expected, but overall a very attractive piece. It looks great in our living room!
