Beautiful, slightly deeper in color than pictured.  The lift top is slightly higher than perfect when we are seated on our sofa.  However, it is wonderful for eating dinner, studying or using the computer.  There is a ton of storage space.  It is sturdy and well made.  We opted to pay for delivery after reading the experience of others.  If you are young and strong you may opt for the free delivery, which will leave it outside.  We also liked that the paid delivery included removal of the ginormous delivery box and packing materials.

Pros: beautiful and functional
Cons: I wish the drawers were on the side that faces you when sitting in front of it.
