This table looks exactly as pictured. I love how it's not too heavy but sturdy enough to have a solid wood feel. The only thing that I have noticed after a year of having it is that the table comes with small wood colored stickers to place over the screws and the stickers keep coming off. I've ended up just leaving the stickers off whenever I find them on the ground, but if the visible screws bother you, I'd suggest using glue or tape for the stickers.
