I like the design because it complements my coffee table. However, when it says "Natural Wood Grain Color Variation" I don't know what part it's talking about. Anything that appears to have a wood finish is a faux print on particle board. I don't expect this piece to last very long. It suggests tightening the screws every month lol... I am a single woman and put it together in an hour. 1 screw or hole was defective but the rest were fine. As Cher would say, it's a "Monet" (nice from far away but meh up close).
