The color is pretty it is not exactly white it is more of a very light cream color. I also like the shape of it it is very classic and will look good in a variety of places in the house. The baskets do stick a little bit when you move in-n-out but I'm going to try to put some sort of wax on it so it slides easier. I wish the baskets were a little sturdier or already had some kind of coating because they tend to fray and peel off onto the floor.
