Very good, but photo is a bit misleading
By Ani-ko
I've been looking at various reproductions for a while now, and since other products from this firm were well reviewed, I decided to take one for the team (possibly) and report back.As noted, the photo is somewhat misleading, as it appears to be of an actual Knoll table, or one of the Italian reproductions. The key is that graceful narrowing as the stem approaches the base, and this Lexington table does not have that; also, the "foot" of the base is a bit chunkier. However, it is far, far better than the stovepipe appearance of the Ikea and CB2 offerings. It won't be noticeable in service, so I am satisfied.Attachment of the tabletop to the base isn't quite as elegant, either; here, we have four exposed nuts and threaded studs. Again, they're down underneath and won't be seen by anyone that isn't looking for them. I intend to find some white plastic caps to smooth over their appearance.Quality-wise, it is good overall; no uneven textures, sags/runs, or other flaws in the finish. It is quite glossy, but that matches my knockoff tulip chairs. The fiberglass top is quite heavy, and the mounting studs weren't exactly parallel, but there was ample clearance in the matching holes in the base, so assembly was straightforward. Have someone around to help you lift the top.The item was well-packaged, almost too well; it took some time to hack my way down to the items themselves. Base and top are boxed separately. Delivery was by FedEx Ground, who brought both items up the steps (1 flight) and in the front door.If you are attracted by the price but are on the fence about this, and have seen other reproductions and are okay with potential tradeoffs, I think you will like it (but your Roomba won't).

It looks nice, just don't look too closely for minor imperfections
By Josh
The table arrived promptly after ordering it, and although well wrapped for the transit, both boxes showed signs of damage incurred during shipping. Upon opening them, the base was badly cracked at the very bottom, and the table top was also scuffed in 3 different spots in a row along the edge. I took pictures, notified the company, and was promptly delivered a second table. This one survived transit much better, the table top had a single tiny scuff spot along the edge, but I can deal with it. I suspect this type of minor damage is a nearly unavoidable product of the packing/shipping.The table is listed as having an aluminum base. While the core of the base may very well be aluminum or some other metal, the outer shell is fiber glass mesh with a lacquer coating baked on. I know this from the cracked one, I could see the construction where the shell was cracked off.The table top surface has a couple minor imperfections which are the result of the lacquering/baking process, but again, nothing significant, you really have to look closely to notice them.Overall, I am happy with the table for the price. I was also happy with the customer service I received upon notifying them of the damaged item.

tulip table
By spice
I absolutely love the table, it is all that I expected and very stable. The only thing is be very careful unpacking it, I had a hard time getting it out of all the packing and put a small 4" SCRATCH on it even though it had lots of protection around it my knife went thru the packing. very happy with the table. really upset at myself for not being more careful after spending my hard earned money.
