Customer Rating:      Summary: Nice table overall Comment: I bought this table recently and I am overall very happy with it. The color is very nice and it seems to be strong and sturdy. Putting the chairs together made me want to pull all of my hair out though. The screw holes were not aligned properly in more than one of the chairs' legs, which made it impossible to completely tighten a few of the screws. It doesn't seem to make much difference in the strength or balance of the chairs, but we'll see with time. One thing that I noticed right away was that the wood seems soft and dings very easily. It arrived with one ding and I put a couple other small knicks in it as I was putting it together with very little effort, but they are not very noticeable. From opening, assembly, and cleaning up it took me over 3 hours to put it all together. I am overall pleased with how the set came out in the end. It is a very gorgeous set. I would suggest signing up for email from Target and waiting for coupons so that it reduces the $100+ they charge for shipping.
Customer Rating:      Summary: wonderful piece Comment: The quality and appearance are fantastic for the price. It arrived within a couple of days of shipping and took around 1 1/2 hours to set up. It did come with some superficial flaws--nothing too obvious. Overall we've been absolutely satisfied.
Customer Rating:      Summary: 4 out of 5 items were defective Comment: I really wanted to like this dining set - it looked nice in the picture and the reviews impressed me.
However, when the set was put together 3 out of 4 chairs wobbled - 2 moderately and 1 really bad, the difference in leg length was almost an inch. The reason was easily identified - the connection holes in the back of the chair were drilled in a slanted line instead of horisontal. So no tightening the chairs with someone sitting on them would have helped (besides, there is just not that much leeway with metal-to-metal connections).
But that was not all - one of the chairs had a warped back (paper thin warped veneer on the backside of the top). You did hear me say "veneer" - make no mistake, the set is NOT made of solid wood (the description does not claim it to be so, this is just a reminder).
Compared to the above the "tiny laquer drops" defect on a small area of the table top was minor.
I gave the set 2 stars only because it does look pretty good. If you want to give it a chance and are prepared to mess with getting another set to replace possibly defective items you might get good results after all. With 4 items out 5 coming defective I did not bother to test my luck again and simply returned the purchase. It took an hour of 2 people's time to put the set together and then another hour for me to take it apart and try to pack it back in the box (keep the box!) as this was the only way to return the set.
Customer Rating:      Summary: DON'T BE MAD!!!!.....SORRY ? Comment: I bought a new house and finally got enough money to buy a table. After running around to all the stores I found this same table at Shxxxx on sale for 179.99! (Yikes!). Hey what can I say times aren't easy. Well I endded up getting two. I have 5 kids and the table sets we were looking for were as much as 800.00 and up and that's just with 6 chairs! So what I did was turn the tables sideways put them together to make it look like I big table and put the 8 chairs all around giving the effect of a large 9 pc. table set people can't tell the difference since most tables have a split going thru the middle looking as though there could be an extra leaflet. So the 2 sets together costs under 400.00 total. Our floor is blond oak and walls are oatmeal so with this beautiful table sittng in the middle of the floor under the designer ceiling fan it looks like we paid over 1000.00, seriously! I was actually looking for extra chairs to make it a 10 seater by turning the tables the long way and putting the 8 chairs along the sides and two on each end so I thought I would check amazon.com and ran into all the reviews. This table is still worth the price you all paid but I had to say something I just couldn't belive this is exactly the same set. Put it toghether took my time due to the chairs and all the screws but oh so worth it. Rich dark walnut finish easily scratched but easy to maintain. Everyone loves it and can't believe this table was purchased at Shxxxx. So again sorry for ruining your day but this is an awesome table. We all agree.
Customer Rating:      Summary: very nice Comment: It is a very good piece for this price. I got one minor defect in one of the chairs, will try to contact the customer service but am lazy. A great deal altogether.
