I love this console table. I finished it in a creamy white paint and stained the top in a light wood tone. The top has a nice wood pattern. It is a good weight and I put it together after finishing the table. It is now my "TV stand", works perfect for my 60" flatscreen and has lots of room for the stereo/soundbar/DVD etc. I prefer it over a media console as it brings the TV up a little higher. Great purchase.
