So, this table would hands down have received 5 stars if it weren't for the fact that it arrived with three different scratch marks on it. I read other reviews that this is very common. The marks aren't a deal breaker, but it definitely does't look distressed the marks look like actual gashes in the wood. Disappointing, but not terrible.Other than that, I love the table. I'm using it as a desk since I like something more elegant and simple than a bulky desk to take up space. I also went for this size of desk because I live in a cozy (read: small, but I love it) apartment and a deeper desk just would not do.I would recommend this table to someone who is wanting to save money, isn't too picky, and needs to save on space. It's made of real wood and the parts that aren't scratched have a beautiful polished (but not glossy) look.
