I like it a lot, but do note that this is more than distressed.  There are actual pieces of chipped wood purposefully manufactured this way.  Although solid wood and not particle board, the top is made by putting together slats that visibly fit together like a puzzle which you can see from the side.  I was bothered for the first 10 minutes, but it grew on my quickly as it looks nice; just didn't expect it to be weathered looking in the way it is...I actually bought the matching night stand after a few days of living with the new narrow, tall dresser.
