Let me start this by saying that I'm codependent on reviews. I rarely, if ever, buy a product that doesn't have at least 10 reviews detailing every possible flaw/joy of a product. I had been looking for a black pedestal table for my one bedroom apartment. I have limited space in the dining room, and I didn't want an overpowering table taking up my precious square footage.
Amazon has a lot of black pedestal tables to choose from, but this one always caught my eye because the pedestal appeared more delicately curved. It was more "girlie".

If you click on that link, their description clearly states that the table is made from MDF and rubber wood. We specifically chose this table over a similar model because the description stated "Made from Solid Selet Asain Hardwood". Amazon should be ashamed of themselves for providing a misleading description and should change it to accurately reflect the details of the product. I only noticed the top was MDF when I was at the last step of assembly since I had left the table top in the security of the box while attaching...Read more
