This is a bit smaller than most coffee tables, so it's a good fit in our small old house; and the shelf makes it more functional since we often have piles of books to stow. The shelf is also a nice place to put your feet up. It looks just like the photo, except the finish is somewhat different - it's a slightly darker brown with a very slight touch of gray/green to it, and a satin surface. The metal legs are a similar but more of a darker bronze color. It looks good to me and goes fine with the mix of stuff we already have. It's made with real wood planks, not plywood or particle board or worse; the instructions say it's reclaimed wood - and it could be since there are some small random holes and the surface isn't perfectly flat (but that adds character). It's fairly heavy and sturdy feeling and was very easy to assemble. Lost one star because the nuts and bolts were loose in the box (the little bag they were in had a hole), and because it smelled of drying varnish for a few days after we put it together, and because the cross-pieces on the underside of the shelf have sharp corners that might hurt a bare foot poked under there (you could sand them a bit to fix that).

I love this table. It's sturdy and gorgeous - for the price, you won't find anything better. It was pretty easy to put together despite the fact we were missing about 75% of the hardware needed - but a quick trip to ********* and $5 later we were ready to go and had it together in about half an hour or so. Totally recommend this piece to anyone who wants a rustic-look on the cheap. As a side note, which is probably limited to my experience only: the box was damaged badly during shipping. Thankfully there was no damage to the product itself and overstock's customer service were all over it to make sure everything was ok. I really was very impressed with their initiative to follow up with me. I first posted a tweet with a picture of the box and within 5 minutes I had received a phone call and an email about possibly needing to return the product etc. If you have any qualms about ordering online, rest assured the overstock customer service team is super helpful should anything go wrong.

This coffee table was a pleasant surprise. It looked great online and was just a nice in person. It was easy to assemble. The wood top and bottom shelf is a medium brown rustic plank look. The metal legs have a nice x detail and are a black iron. This is a great buy.

I am so glad I pulled the trigger on this table. Everything arrived intact, and the wood is just beautiful. Based on the dozens of reviews I read, I understand the tone of the wood naturally varies with each table, so I was a tad nervous. Mine turned out to be a very lovely, warm, and bright blonde wood with a hint of almost charred grey undertones. I don't know what the hang-up is with other reviewers' comments on sturdiness -- I made sure to tighten down all the hardware before use. Solid as a rock. I had a second set of hands on this, just to be safe with the wood. It's also incredibly light once constructed -- 60 lbs, so movement is easy if needed. FYI: this isn't an ugly, roughly finished piece. I love the idea of reclaimed wood and the good behind it, but all the reviews citing how too "rough" and "rustic" this table looked did put me on guard until I was finally able to view it in person. The manufacturer took care to give the table top, sides, and shelf a nice soft finish for a semi-gloss, clean appearance. The dark bronze legs also lend a nice masculine note to the table's overall aesthetic (think: gently aged barn tools). I'm just really in love. Ordering the matching end tables this week.

Dark, rustic wood coffee table. Simple and classic. Looks great with Modesto 48-inch Metal and Reclaimed Wood Storage Coat Hook Shelf and Bench Set.

I love this table. The wood is just beautiful and is very sturdy. It took me about 30 minutes to put it together, as the instruction have you bolt the legs to the top first and then add the bottom shelf. I had tightened the top down and couldn't get the bottom shelf in place, I had to loosen one leg in order to get the bottom shelf in place.

I love this coffee table! I was looking for something rustic industrial and this was it! It does have dings and little holes here and there but that's part of the design which I totally love. It's heavy and sturdy-I prop my feet on it on occasion but I wouldn't sit on it. I put a decorative tray on top to hold remotes and magazines and make everyone use a coaster. I set it up myself which took about 30 min. It's impossible to do it yourself as the instructions state-the shelves are super heavy for one person to hold and screw in the bolts. I ended up laying the shelves on their sides and took it from there. Remember not to tighten up the bolts until the bottom shelf is in-I made that mistake and had to go back and loosen to fit in the bottom shelf. My fault as I was excited to get it going and it's on the instructions to not tighten until done! Overall I love this table and am super happy I bought it. Everyone loves it and comments on it. It sure beats the IKEA crap table I had before that was ruined by my little dogs over a period of time-that's why I chose this table for the legs and rustic industrial look. I wish they had a TV stand in this style!! Oh and some commenters noted that it was rickety-mine is not at all-it's sturdy and solid as a rock!

There is assembly required, however it is easy to do with one person despite the suggestion of needing two. Simply place the bottom portion face down on an existing table or horse with the ends hanging over edge. place table legs over holes and tighten. Then place top of table face down on floor and place the legs in place over the screw holes then tighten- takes about 10 minutes- As far as the table is concerned. It has the reclaimed feel and look. My only drawback is the screw holes that are visible on the table top and bottom portion. Since those pieces come preassembled, I think pocket holes should have been used to give it a more rustic look- very sturdy table.........Good purchase overall.

The top and shelf are better than expected. This rustic table is the perfect addition to our TV room. The metal blends really nicely with other metals in the room.

this table is perfect between our two love 60" love seats. can even use for feet. the look is great... love the metal legs with the old rustic wood top. the bottom shelf is very useful for magazines etc.. highly recommend. pricing is great

This is a fantastic table for a terrific price. I can't understand those who write in their reviews that the table is not sturdy...idiots who can't use a simple hex wrench..tighten the bolts all the way people!!!! don't be afraid to use a little muscle. It took me 10-15 minutes to put this table together then I WALKED on it and I'm a 6'1" 250 lb bodybuilder!! I have a gorgeous home and am fanatical about my furnishings. I have several other beautiful reclaimed wood pieces that cost me thousands of dollars yet this simple affordable table which i use in a sunroom extension to my kitchen gets SO many compliments...a great deal!!! Im buying the end tables next...

We bought this coffee table for our cabin. It is rustic, and in some spots, even uneven, but that adds to the character of the table. At this price, could not have made a better choice. The bottom shelf gives us more storage room for books. The metal legs and side have an iron look, matte brown. If you are looking for rustic industrial, you will love this table.

This coffee table is exactly what I wanted! The wood is beautiful and the black legs are not flimsy but very strong to support the tabletop and lower shelf. I have looked at a variety of coffee tables which are lightweight and poorly made that cost more than this table. This table is very well made, strong, and heavy. However, it is not too heavy that it is impossible to move. The wood has a hint of honey-yellow mixed in with the medium brown colored wood which I thought would be an issue with the wood trim I have and my dark brown furniture. However, it blends nicely with my dark brown, rust, tan, and black decor. The size of this table is perfect for a standard size couch or larger. However, it would overpower a loveseat. I am extremely pleased with this table and would recommend it highly!

I purchased this based on reviews and am 100% pleased with it. 2 things I need to advise: the color is a wood with gray/green tone not as pictured, also no directions only a vague picture of bolt assembly so I remember to assemble bottoman shelf to side bars/legs 1st then assemble that structure to table top. Best to lay tabletop upside down and measure exact center of bar placement on underside of tabletop BEFORE TIGHTENING ANYTHING. Had I not done the measuring of metal side leg placements my legs would have been one more towards front and one more towards back of table -you want legs centered exactly. Wait to tighten and I mean tighten all screws at the end and the table will be solid as a rock no wobble. Also the metal legs may look thin but the are STRONG. I tried to bend one and it wasn't gonna bend. That's a good thing!! I was skeptical about this table but when it was assembled I am so happy I chose. Please follow my advise and you'll feel the same.

Beautiful table! I wasn't sure if the quality would match the photo but it was. I was most concerned that the metal legs would look flimsy, but the metal is heavy and sturdy. Looks like a solid plank top though it isn't. Great table for the price.

This table is heavy and feels substantial. I love the coloring and the design with the X shaped metal. Our tabletop is a bit warped. I’m not sure if that’s standard to add to the rustic look, but it doesn’t bother me enough to return it. I like that it looks authentically hand built.

This is wonderful table. The height and quality are excellent. There is plenty of storage. The look of the wood and metal together look hreat in our decor. I really enjoy the top. It is very well made and easy to put together.

We've had this for about two months now and absolutely love it. It's actual reclaimed wood (or appears to be) and is very solid and sturdy. It was a little tricky to put together but nothing too difficult. The top is a little uneven but that's due to the nature of the reclaimed wood. I'd buy this table again and again.

Nice coffee table. We needed one that was a bit more narrow than our old one to fit our new home....this fit the bill great! Free shipping, received in a reasonable amount of time. Decent quality, not super heavy and not super light...Nicely packed, easy and quickly put together; light to medium dirty/distressed brown in color. I'd rate it a strong 4+ out of 5. Obviously not a show-piece-- but decent quality for price. I mixed some woodwise pre-finish filler together (red oak tone and a bit of walnut tone) and filled the screw holes that are on the trim piece that surrounds the table too. Distressed effect on top facing wood...bottom of table is unstained, but easy enough to seal. Patina/finish is not super heavy, so I imagine it would take stain well if you wanted it darker, or, perhaps, to do paint and knock down reclaimed effect as is popular.

So I just moved to a new place and decided to get all new furniture. I wanted a nice quality chair and couch and figured I would get my other pieces paycheck by paycheck.. well after viewing this coffee table online, reading reviews and doing my reasearch I went for it! This piece is identical to some pieces I picked out at a well know boutique furniture store.. only those pieces were *** . You won't be disappointed and if anything it will tie you over until the bigger purchase. Certainly serves its purpose not to mention the sturdiness and quality of wood met my expectations. My directions to essemble were missing but I never mind as I love these types projects. it was easy and one person job. Make sure you put shelf in before nails. Do not nail top to legs first. I'm sure directions include those steps. Enjoy! I sure am
