I am curious if the problem of "dings and dents" has been fixed. I really like this table....

My husband took care of the dents. I like the table but would like to add the middle may need some support underneath if you were planning on using something heavy in that area.

Hi. I had no dents or dings. The packaging was Great. Each and every piece of metal was covered with a sticky piece of clear plastic - no residue when removed, very easy to peel off. I'm using my bench outside, so even if there were dings or dents, it wouldn't matter to me. It's a surprisingly good looking bench.

I use mine outside as a potting bench. As far as dings and dents, I didn't have any when I got it and still don't have any. It's one of those things that gets better with age, I love it.

Hi Magen, I apologize for the late response, but unfortunately, I purchased this table four years ago as a gift to a toddler. I just received the box and later took it to the birthday party, but I did not open it to see how it looked like.

This table is made of real wood and is quite sturdy - one piece of advice though, if you purchase it - get some expanding wood glue (i.e. liquid nails, etc). It could have been user error on my part but when I put the table together, there were some gaps very tiny gaps (out of sight) where the legs meet the top that caused the table to wobble a bit. I was able to put some expanding wood glue in there and haven't had any issues since.

I ended up returning mine.... It was messed up, had several dents, etc. I simply wanted to "exchange" it, but they forced me to repurchase. When I went to repurchase the price went up $30. I thought that unfair, so I did not purchase it. I still have a coordinating end table that I purchased from another vendor.

I bought this table for a relative who lives far away. Her box arrived with instructions and, so far as I know, she has had no problem with the table. Sorry, can't be more helpful.

I'm pretty sure that we had pre-drilled holes. Make sure the pieces are in order, if they are you may have gotten a faulty set. I love the table though.

No, it hasn't. On my original order, the packaging was so damaged that UPS refused to deliver it.Thank you, UPS!On the second delivery, the packaging was shredded and the table was dented and scratched but, sadly, I needed it in place and have positioned it in the kitchen to shield those dents and scratches.My only negative experience with Amazon, ever!

Hi. I just got the coffee table and I love it. The product wasn't damaged at all (like other reviews said) and it is living up to my 3 and 5 year olds treatment. I haven't sat on it, but I'm sure my kids have and there have been no issues (its pretty solid).

Hi Vijay, I wasn't home at the time they came to deliver the table (they tried 2-3 times) so it was returned to the factory and I did not re-purchase. I cannot answer your question. I apologize, and good luck!

I've had this table for a few months now. I don't hear any cranking noise at all when I change the level of this table. It's a well built table.

I will check when I return home this evening, if no one else has answered by then. I love this table; it's very sturdy yet easy to move.

I would also assume it is scratched or damaged. Mine does not have that problem.

I've never had that problem in my 1+ years of experience with this table. It's a great table and I highly recommend it.

I actually just received the table and have not assembled. The one I received from Amazon was actually damaged. Amazon was terrific about returning and immediately crediting my card. The table itself is well constructed and sturdy. Looking at the instructions- assembly should not be difficult. I was told to apply Sikkens Cetol finish to extend the life of the table.

Contact customer service via telephone. I had a simmular problem with this table and they immediatly put in an order for a new table to be delivered and for the old table to be picked up without any expense to me. Make sure you inform them that this table was damaged in delivery and that you would like a replacement as soon as possible. Hope this helps. :)

I haven't had any problems with it denting. It's large and therefore bulky. There have been occasions when denting could have easily occurred.

One side of mine works great, the other not at all. I haven't tried to fix it yet, but I expected to have problems with this from reading reviews before I bought it. Still a good table, and just use the manual scoring on the side.
