Nice solid piece. The color is more of a grey oak and there is a texture to the wood grain. It is a nice contemporary dresser, very heavy and sturdy. It was difficult for the delivery men to get it into the house and up the stairs. The drawers are well made but they do not always close all the way and when you open them you do need to tug a bit at first if they were shut completely. I am just hoping that the drawer pulls hold up because I don’t know how I would fix or replace them. So far so good though!
