Love love love this TV stand! Looks just like the picture.  Exactly what we have been looking so long for. Took us 5 months to pick this one out. Read lots of reviews. Did not take very long for us to put this together.  Pieces fit perfectly. Yes, it's heavy and well made. Could not ask for more. Color is Cottage White. It's white - not bright white.  If you have other white in the room the shades may be different but for us it's not really noticeable.
