I had been searching to find a coffee table that would not take up a lot of space. I did not want any long table in front of my futon as visually it will also look as long as my futon. Finally, I found this item and like the design and clean lines. This table is small and for my use perfect. For someone else it may be too small, all depends on space. Everything came as described by the seller, including a few left-over screws (extra). The directions were straightforward (think print could be a little larger to see) Follow the steps and you will find this easy to put together in no time. A hint that may be helpful in assembly- place the screws in each area but suggest do not do a hard/complete attachment on any part until completely assembled. The reason I say this is pressure can alter assembly from side to side, top-bottom moves. So when all parts are assembled and in place that is when I do the final tightening of the entire piece. I like the design, how it is fitting my space. I can also see multiple uses, such as plant holders, for example, or a table by the bed area with your favorite reading material, this item has potential for a lot of ways. This table is doable for the purpose I need it, however, also see other potential uses too. Love the two-tone top. Adds a little class. And I had also read where one mentioned stickers for numbers on the top pieces. Mine were on the side that you have to attach the screws, the V shape frame (holds the feed in place), and so when reversed, nothing pasted on that side (which would be the top you see when finished.). The sticky numbers do not come off easily. If you have space issues, this may be the end table or coffee table. Price reasonable. Shipping fast. Product as described. Recommend for any purpose around the home (including for kids bedroom)
