The color is very accurate, we got the darker shade. comes in many pieces as expected but the pre-drilled holes line up very well so its fairly easy to put together compared to cheaply manufactured pieces. well packaged and had no damages upon delivery. had one part missing but wayfair sent a replacement fairly quickly so no issue there.  Very sturdy once put all together and the instructions were well planned out. The "manufactured wood" vs "solid wood" is what i expected. the top, legs, and all door and drawer faces were solid, the interior is still very sturdy but more of a laminated composite material. comes with a touch up pen for any future scratches and a kit to child proof anchor it to the wall.
