We love it!
We purchased this from www.cb2.com without seeing it in person. We read all of the reviews and they were good enough for us to order one. The color is called "high gloss oat." However, due to the lacquer finish, it looks really white and that's what we wanted to finish our Crate and Barrel living room. Installation was easy - all you have to do is follow the instructions.

Simple elegance
I stalked this coffee table for a while. My living room is very narrow and my previous table was too bulky. But this one was so long, I just wasn't sure. Well, it is perfect. It helps streamline the room. It's a nice weight. Shiny, which adds another texture to the room. I've gotten a lot of compliments on it.

Great product
The only reason it isn't five stars is because it was eerily easy to put together. Literally took about 7 minutes. Looks great in my contemporary style and the size is perfect. Highly recommended!

Awesome bench!
This bench is awesome! I held off initially on the price - but it's worth every penny! It's a light greyish color - love it!!!!! It was so easy to put together - our 11 year old put it together with the assistance of my husband.

Love it, love it, love it
I shop online a lot, with usually satisfactory results, and occasionally huge disappointments. I knew I loved the style of this bench but was sceptical of the color. "Light oat"? Think greige? I wanted a light, warm gray and that is precisely what this bench is. I have it in my neutral (gray, cream) master bedroom and it is gorgeous! BTW: It says it takes 2 people to assemble, but I couldn't wait for my husband to get home so I tried it myself and 20 minutes later, voila! Really, this bench looks twice the price.

a-MAY-zing!
people comment on this guy every time they see it.
the table just lends itself perfectly to any sofa-- it's sleek and slender and modern, and it lets the fabric of your sofa do the talking at the same time.
at first i was annoyed by the price, but now that i have it, i think it was worth every penny. it's a show stopper.

stylish all-purpose bench/table
I bought the chartreuse version of this table (no longer available), at a great price ($149). The color was great, the table very solid, easy to assemble, and matches my modern/artsy decor.
Even though it's very long, its slimness doesn't make it overwhelming, which is also what I was looking for.
Best of all, I use it as coffee table, bench, long side table.
The one drawback: the glossy finish easily scratches.

Perfect find!
I originally bought this bench to use as a coffee table/dining table. When having friends over we just sat on floor cushions and gathered around in the living room; It was perfect! Eventually I moved the bench and made it my TV console and it works great for that as well. Comfortably fits my tv, some table top decor and dvd baskets underneath. This is such a versatile find!

Great bench/coffee table
I had been looking for a light colored coffee table and couldn't find anything, until I found this. It's a great piece and kind of looks like a vanilla or light oatmeal color. It's very modern and looks great in our space. The one thing you need to double check if using for a coffee table is the width because it's not that wide and it might look small in a big space. Highly recommend and it's holding up very well so far after being banged on several times.

Great bench!
I ordered this bench to go with the slab dining table, and it looks amazing! We are actually going to order another one to go on the other side. Definitely get this bench if you want a really great modern dining set or even as a coffee table/bench for another purpose.
