Attractive Coffee Table, February 2, 2009
This table arrived with some scratches and cracks, but when assembled is sturdy and attractive.
The first table I ordered was so badly damaged in shipping that the mail carrier refused to deliver it, and its replacement was pretty banged up as well. The packaging could stand to be more protective considering some of the pieces are thin wood (e.g. drawer bottoms).
As for the table itself, this is a very good quality piece for the price. Assembly is reasonable, taking about 1/2 hour to put together. The drawers move smoothly without catching, and all the pieces line up properly. The finish is a more of a deep espresso color than a black. This looks like an expensive table from a furniture store, and is sure to get a lot of compliments.

Awesome Coffee Table, January 29, 2009
This is one of the best if not the best coffee table I have ever owned. I purchased one a few months ago and lost it in hurricane ike. It was such a great coffee table we had to purchase another one. It is extremely sturdy and beautiful. Not cheap at all very study and well made. The price is the best we have seen for something with such good quality. Overall I don't see anything wrong with it, it's well made, very solid wood and craftsmanship, and looks great. We are getting a piece of glass cut to go on the top of it and put pictures of the family on the top in between the table and the glass and have our last name etched in the glass. Hope this helps

Beautiful Table, But..., February 17, 2009
This is a beautiful table. It is very solid, sturdy, and great quality for the price. It is a nice dark black color, when it was in pieces it looked more like an espresso color, but once it is assembled, it is definitely black. It was fairly easy to put together. It arrived pretty quickly as well. I spent a lot of time looking locally and online for a black coffee table that was not cheap looking or made of partical board. This is exactly what I was hoping to find.
I would have given it 5 stars for it's looks and quality, but I am giving it 3 for the following reasons...
When I received this item, it was severely damaged. I contacted amazon, and they shipped me a second table (at no charge) the following week, which was ALSO very damaged. I literally had to piece together undamaged parts from the two boxes to get a complete table. Our completed table still has damage on one end of the table top, and also the center shelf. But we are keeping it, because I did not want to risk having a third table sent to me, only to have it also arrive damaged. I contacted amazon about the second table, and they have offered a small credit for the damages. The company who manufactures and ships this item, needs to change the way that it is packaged to avoid this problem. Hopefully if you are ordering this table, it will not arrive damaged like mine did.
Also, it shows dust, pet hair, and fingerprints like crazy! We have a cat and a gog who both have black fur, and the table is constantly covered with hair. I have to dust it, and wipe down the table top everyday to keep it looking nice. We have other black furniture in our home, that does not have this problem. You will need to use a coaster on it, and dust it often.
