Defective West Elm Marble Bistro Table: Original Table
The marble top of West Elm's Reeve Mid-Century Bistro Table is not actually a single piece of marble -- the round edges are made up of many small segments that have been glued to the main piece somehow.
Over the course of a few months after receiving the table, cracks began appearing on the edges of the table and eventually two parts of the table fell off. One incident was at night (~3am) and the sound woke us up, the other was during the day when I was not using the table.
West Elm eventually sent a replacement marble top, but unfortunately the same thing is happening again. Cracks began to appear along the edges after a few months in the exact same places as before, and yesterday the cracks seemed to deepen.
The table is used lightly for dinner, cleaned with a marble table-top cleaner, and kept in a home in a Washington, DC apartment.
