Its a beautiful piece! The instructions were very easy to follow but did take me over 1.5 hrs to put together. Cabinets doors are easy to align and set. The color is not a bright white...definitely an off white. The hardware is also a oil rubbed bronze, not black as appeared in image. My console did come in a very nicely shipped box with extra padding to protect it during shipping. However, it was covered in black handprints. I needed to wipe each piece clean. My favorite is the slow closed doors! Overall I do reccomend this console table.
