I bought this from Ikea a number of years ago, my main priorities were "large" and "at a height that I could eat my dinner at", both of which this delivers.
The frame is an unidentified hardwood, the top is thick toughened glass.
The glass panel is meant to rest on six little plastic spacers, however one of these has vanished and it now rests on five- however this doesn't seem to have actually had any measurable impact on stability whatsoever. The glass is a) very heavy and b) very stiff.
I imagine that a quick trip to Ikea would furnish you with a replacement, or just use a felt washer/similar if you wanted absolute peace of mind.
I, personally, haven't bothered and it's been fine for a couple of years now.
Size:
Large glass coffee tables can be quite spendy- therefore I shall buck the trend and ask for £50, collected from Forest Hill.
Some interest in this but so far no one has turned up to get it- first come first served.

Formatting Help
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
