I bought this piece to hold a small 32" tv in a very small bedroom. I like it very much, however assembly was a challenge. There are many pieces to put together and countless screws involved. It seems to be very sturdy and yet still easy to move. The color is true to the photo - not "white washed" as described, however it borders on the warm tan/taupe side. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase and recommend to anyone wanting a smaller sized server piece.
