Arrived earlier than expected, and it looks exactly as pictured. It’s actually now my favorite piece of furniture for its simplicity and versatility and price!! Assembly took about 15 minutes for my husband. I had been looking for a long entryway console for 2 years for our modern decor home. I considered everything from 500- 1500 pieces at designer sites. This console was only 234!! It’s sturdy, has a nice distressed color, low-maintenance appeal. My favorite part is the panel that hangs in the back. It hides an electrical outlet on the wall, so I can plug in anything (like a lamp or diffuser) and cords aren’t visible hanging in the back (my pet peeve). I like the metal accents. Some people commented on it being gold, but it’s a very dull gold, so it’s subtle and just enough to provide a highlight without being obnoxious. My husband also likes this piece a lot! One of my favorite Wayfair buys!
