We visited Top Furniture having found the large extending oak table and chairs we preferred on-line. It all came very well packaged leaving alot of cardboard to recycle! When comparing with the oak table we were replacing, only because we wanted a larger extending table, we observed the following in comparison: The 'leather' seats are firmer and the chairs are a little higher so they have taken a little longer to get use to. None of the chairs or table legs had cushion pads on so our flooring would have easily scratched with any movement. We therefore purchased pull off sticky pads and cut them to fit all 32 chair legs and 4 table legs plus a stool! This is something we would not have expected to have had to do and something Top Furniture should look into as not as many have carpet these days! There was a residue of wax on the surface of the table and bench, which required wiping off with paper towel to avoid ending up on your hands. The table and chairs are very sturdy and well made and look great in our new extended dining room so overall pleased with our purchase.
