So in love with these! The gold color is actually gold (I’ve been burned by that before), and the faux marble shelves are beautiful. They were pretty easy to put together - took me about 1.5 hours per shelf by myself. There were a couple of pieces that didn’t line up correctly where I needed a second pair of hands, and still a few spots where there are very minor gaps but we expected that with the pre-fab DIY furniture. Overall, very satisfied.
