Very nice sideboard; came assembled which is great. Only issue is there was a small defect on the bottom of one of the vertical frame pieces (piece just left of the bottom drawer) where the stain didn't take for some reason and a very thin strip of bare wood was showing. Covered it with a "furniture" crayon. Also, finish is a bit rough so if you're looking for a highly polished/smooth surface, this isn't for you.  Color is a very dark grey, almost black. Looks good with my black/brown dining room table. Very happy with it even though it's now $70 cheaper than when I bought it! Guess that happens. :)
