It truly is beautiful. The wood grain is pleasantly subtle and the coloring just like the photos. The handles were screwed inside the drawers so they wouldn’t break off in shipping and that made it a little hard to open them. Tip tilt the dresser and smack the back slightly until the drawers slide out. You need to screw in the legs which we did incorrectly the first go-around so just be sure to look closely at the directions Bc I sure didn’t. All in all, it’s a 4 star because I’m very disappointed in the resistance from the drawer glides. Haven’t figured out how to pull the entire drawer out yet, and they are definitely not smooth or easy to pull out. I worry they will get tougher in time.
