1st review i have ever written ... ordered the catskill craftsman contemporary harvest table ... arrived pronto ... real heavy ... 141 lbs worth in 2 boxes ... laid out all the pieces ... wood was top notch ... all components accounted for ... instructions poorly written but that's the norm nowadays ... however ... the cheaply engineered assembly hardware was a complete & utter joke ... having been in the construction business for over 45 yrs ... & ... also ... after assembling countless furniture items from ikea, pottery barn, crate & barrel, etc ... i can tell you that this company cuts corners on its' hardware ... the only positive thing that i can tell you is that, fully assembled, it is visually stunningBUT ... under NO circumstances ... should you, any of your houseguests, neighbors, friends or even house pets even think about leaning against or trying to chop on it ... let alone try to jiggle it if it needs to be moved for cleaning ... BELIEVE ME ... once "assembled," & i use that term lightly ... it is more wobbly, rickety, & unstable than Zsa Zsa Gabor on her one remaining leg without her wheelchair ... I'M SERIOUS ... imagine a massive 2' x 4' two-inch-thick butcher black perched precariously on top of the equivalent of your grandmother's old TV tray from the 50's that she still uses when she watches 'jeopardy' ... yes ... THAT bad !!!no wonder the united states is slipping in the global order of things ... we can't even engineer a functional, simple, STURDY kitchen table ... did i return it? ... no ... why? ... because i'm a carpenter so i'm going to glue, wood dowel, anchor, brace, etc in order to make this thing function as it purports to be ... now, then ... who are you going to hire to re-engineer & rebuild this harvest kitchen table? ... factor in a carpenters fee to make this product stable when you add up the total cost of this item ... think about it before you get your credit out of your wallet so it can breath ... don't throw your money away on this engineering failureonly reason i even gave this item 1 star is because it looks good in the picture

5Great Table
By Karen Bryan
First I received it 6 days early.. very happy there. I did have a little problem putting it together but my fault. I tighten the bastion post in to much and the set screw would go in but not correctly. By doing that it made the table unstable. So I took it a part and seen that it didn't go in far enough. so I screwed the bastion Post out just a little and this time the set screw went in all the way and made it very stable. I think that is what happened to the other person that that left a negative review... I really am happy with it...

4great design, some flaws, good value
By Diane
First off, all the other reviewers have good points to make. Perhaps I found this easier to put together after having the benefit of their knowledge.It was delivered to my porch, and while I was able to lever the heavier box upright (to walk/scoot forward), I was not able to lift it over the threshold into the house. The threshold is only about 2" tall so, the point is, one of the boxes is a heavy sucker. I got a stranger passing on the street to help me get it up and over. After that, I was able to scoot it into the room I had cleared out in order to assemble it.Yes, it takes time to get the table put together. And, yes, when it's done, even if you've got things snug, there is play in the joints. I suppose you could use wood glue as you went along to prevent this but, so far, it doesn't bother me all that much. I chose not to use the glue in case I got something put together wrong and maybe had to re-do it (I didn't, after all, but there was no way to know that from the start.) Even with the play, the table still seems quite solid.I was able to do it all by myself, even though I would not describe myself as a handy person. Just following the directions, and dedicating an afternoon to it, was enough. Though, in the end, once finished, it was heavy enough I needed a neighbor to help me put it upright (part of the assembly you do upside down due to the weight of the table top). So, if you have patience and can follow directions, you'll be fine.Note: when it comes to mounting the drawer slides, there are two graphics in the instruction set - and one of them is slightly wrong. It indicates putting screws in a spot that there is no pre-drilled hole. But, if you just look at the other graphic (showing the orientation of the drawer slide relative to the drawer face), you'll be able to line the slides up and get them installed using only the pre-drilled holes. Doing that, all of my holes lined up just fine. This does not mean that I never used a drill. This wood is hard, I'm not that strong, and I used a drill with a screwdriver bit in order to be able to get some of the screws all the way in, snug. So, no new holes were needed, but powering the screws in was, at least for a few of them.One other thing to note, the table top was not perfect, there was a gouge on one of the side edges (I could tell myself this adds character), and the wood on the underside was split/chipped (this bothered me more because it seemed like it could, potentially, weaken the top). However, the top is so heavy, and I did not notice this until I was in the last steps of assembly (after a few hours work), that I did not feel like pursuing the company for a replacement table top. Yes, it's that heavy, and you do spend that much time putting it together. So, why still 4 stars? Because even with these flaws, I expect the table to last a long time. Time will tell if it really does, but it seems like it should.I love the design. Two shelves, the middle one adjustable. Just the right size. I wasn't able to find something with as good of a design anywhere else, assembled or not. And, while this design is available through a few different outlets, the best price for it (at the time I was shopping) was here on Amazon.
