This is a beautiful TV stand. Of course, it is not solid wood, but it is a high quality piece nonetheless. I got the color "rustic oak," assuming it was somewhere between "grey wash" and "white oak" in darkness. It is darker than we expected, so I am a bit disappointed in the color. Although it is a pretty color, it is darker than it looked in the pictures, so it does not match the lighter wood in other things in our living room. I agree with another reviewer that the "rustic oak" color is kind of grey-ish, to the point where I wondered if we received the wrong color. On closer look, I think the pictures people have posted of the "grey wash" option show that that option is very grey, as opposed to ours which is somewhere between brown and grey.
