Outstanding table
we spent almost a year looking fo a perfect table, and in the end, blox was second to none. Very modern and unique, beautiful Mango wood, very solid (and super heavy). We have it set up for 8, but can squeeze in 10, if we need to. Been careful with the not dropping things on it, no signs of wear (after 3 months) yet.

Perfect
We never saw this table except online before purchase, still it exceeded our expectations. the best thing about it is the shape. While its narrower than other tables it doesn't 'feel' like it - instead it makes the room feel bigger and cozier at the same time. Some reviewers have voiced concerns over the finish. We're pretty hard on things and after a few months, still not a mark on it. Great value and style.

Great table
We just received our table last week. Very fast delivery to France only 2 weeks and perfectly covered So the table was in perfect shape!
The table fits just perfectly in our home and everybody can easily sit around the table due to the feet That do not take much place!
I cannot say anything on the state of the Wood however as we havé young children I do add a cloth when we have dinner

Great Looking / Worried about wear...
First off, the table is gorgeous and huge. You can easily fit eight chairs around, even ten still leaves some elbow room. The wood is very natural, yet very smooth. Hidden underneath is a steal reinforcing structure that is recessed into the table. Overall it's very sturdy.
The only downside is that CB2 doesn't really make it clear that the table only has a wax finish on it. Once you order it, you get an email that says 'always use coasters to protect from moisture and heat.'
Ok, so that's a kitchen a table you can't spill anything on? That was frustrating. But, I've found that for the most part that warning is a little over the top. There's a good coat of wax on the table when it ships, and water will bead up instead of soaking in. We don't use coasters and haven't had any problems. Popsicles, tomato sauce, glasses left over night, etc. No stains yet.
I did purchase some all natural beeswax (beware of the types with oil in them as they will color the table.) I ordered some Daddy Van's all natural beeswax off of amazon. I coated the table in it. It took maybe five minutes, I expect to repeat this once every couple months.
I'd recomend this table, and would likely purchase again....I just wish CB2 made it clear what I was getting into when I ordered it. Upon recieving that email I felt a little buyer's remorse. But to date, everything has been fine.

perfect table
The table came with "white gloce" delivered and they truely careful with the furniture.
The solid Mango wood holds up well, no stain rings from glasses or bottles yet and we have used it quite a bit.
The design of the legs is unique and many friends have complemented on it. The price is definitely fair!
