Nice table
My wife loved the way this table looks and it is a good looking table. The only problem is that is is a semi-soft wood. When people with jeans have sat on the benches, that match the table, they leave marks in the wood from the rivets in the jeans.

Awesome Purchase!
My husband and I were trying to find a substantial dining room table and chairs. We knew it had the potential to be a pricey purchase so we started by going to a lot of discount furniture stores. After months of searching, we still hadn't found anything! Finally we passed by this Basque dining set at Crate and Barrel and then we got a 10% off coupon in the mail and then they had a "seating sale"...so we wound up getting a heck of a deal on a really nice dining room set! It was actually a better price than what we'd been quoted as many nearby discount furniture stores...but it was 100% better quality!

Great table, love it
Loved the table from the minute I saw it online. It is perfect. I did read reviews about scratching and took the time to apply several coats of paste wax prior to use. The table doesn't receive heavy use and I haven't had any scratch issues

Beautiful
Our Basque Java 104" dining table was delivered on the Friday following Thanksgiving. It is a huge table and was the perfect size to seat ten guests for a second holiday meal. It did have some imperfections in the finish (a few minor scratches and dents) but they seem to look more like distressing than damage from the warehouse. I have read in previous reviews that it scratches easily; but when a guest slid a stoneware plate across the table, it didn't even leave a mark ! I would advise using place-mats or coasters if you are concerned about protecting the finish. We look forward to having many more meals at this table for years to come!

Fabulous!
I bought the table, long bench, chairs and bar stools even though I was concerned about some of the other reviews re: scratches ....so far I am VERY pleased w/ my furniture ~ it does seem to scratch fairly easily, but I have not seen any color change with the scratches. I absolutely LOVE the deep rich look of the wood and after reading the reviews was almost wishing I had gone with the honey finish -- SO GLAD I didn't change my mind : )

Basque Table Java
I have had this table for about 6 months and totally love it. The color is a very dark expresso brown (slightly darker than the matching cabinet, but only a little). It is a very solid table with nice clean lines. The table surface does have the knots etc, that I think would look a little better in the Honey finish, but are still nice in Java too. I have not experienced any marking on the table like some of the other reviewers have. I do use table mats and trivets though. I am definitely happy with my purchase. Also, CB customer service is outstanding.

Gorgeous!
I love love love this table. The wood is beautiful, the size fits my dining room perfectly (and does seat 10 comfortably) and I am so happy I bought it. We moved to a new house and for the first time were able to entertain my entire family for Christmas...at the same table! It compliments a variety of styles too. I would recommend this without reservation.
