I took a chance and ordered this table after viewing it in my cart for a couple months. I'm glad I did. It is very solid, heavy and sturdy, and the actual color in person is a lovely, more natural walnut color. My computer monitor showed it closer to a cherry wood red, even though the listing said a walnut finish which was my hesitation. But when it arrived, it was the more subdued and elegant brown. The style is mid-century modern design at Great Offer Stock pricing, and I would recommend this table to anyone (I had been seriously contemplating the $$$$ designer version). Even though it is nearly seven feet long, the narrow oval shape provides a smaller footprint, and it very comfortably seats six. One item of note that wasn't immediately evident from the listing photo, where the four legs attach to the tabletop, the leg protrudes out PAST the actual top, so I would recommend pairing this table with dining chairs that don't have arms, as it will impede your tablecloth lying flat at those four points as chair arms put push the cloth in instead of allowing it to hang. The protruding legs also don't allow for seating for eight, which was also my initial hope. They're simply in the way, and would be uncomfortable for any guest. The table arrived quickly, was packaged securely and in beautiful condition. It was super easy to assemble. I did have some initial trouble with shipping arrangements, but Overstock's customer service was first rate, and they helped me get through the red tape.
