This table is just as pictured. The veneer finish is good quality. The table feels sturdy and solid. It is equipped with two straps on the backside to affix to the wall for additional support from becoming top heavy. The drawer hardware track is quiet and smooth you won’t be slamming the drawers shut. I have included a close up of the color and grain that compliment the black metal frame. The wood color is a variation of a light wash and natural wood with a slight gray undertone. But can easily play off of beige and other earth tones. I love the modern minimalist look and this table awarded me the ability to enjoy both and suits my modern boho living room. The only complaint I have is one drawer is slightly warped (I included a pic). It wasn’t enough for me to deal with the frustration of trying to return the table but it’s there and I noticed it. Overall, I’m very happy with my purchase!
