Ive only had this for a month, but its awesome so far. I have a 2 and 4 year old, who love to beat up furniture. Weve had paint, slime, play dough, markers, crayons everything dumped on this table so far. Cleans up well. I was worried because I read some reviews about the varnish coming off easily I dont have time for placemats or special cleaning. I use dish soap (Seventh Generation) and whatever rag I can find and I have no varnish issues. I have, however, seen some little strips of stain come off right at the cracks where the natural wood is exposed. This happened the first couple of washes. Im type A and it doesnt bother me. If it starts to bother me, Ill just use a sharpie or stain to touch it up. The ease of washing the chair cushions deserves 5 stars as well. Paint and play dough come right out. Im so glad I dont have to be a freak mom that covers everything before letting children do crafts. Were a mess, but it cleans up so nicely.
Beautiful Table!
