The TV stand is a very well made heavy piece of furniture, but the pictures on the website do not accurately show what the color of the wood looks like. I ordered the dark wood, and it has a very greyish tone/stripe type pattern running through it...it wasn't dark wood at all. It had almost a plastic feel to it. I was very disappointed because I had waited for this to come back in stock to purchase it. It was the perfect style I was looking for. Wayfair was amazing to deal with on the return. I have previously ordered things from Wayfair and have always been really satisfied, so I bummed when this didn't work out.
