I kept watching for a better sale while I wavered paying what I did but now seeing it in person- it is priced where it should be! It is a statement piece and goes beautifully in my dining room. It is real wood, very sturdy and heavy! After inspecting the piece from being unwrapped, we noticed a small scratch on the side. Wayfair thankfully offered a discount and I am extremely satisfied. I can't wait to see the rest of my dining room come together!
