The sideboard is as it appears in the picture. We like it. Although some reviewers stated they assembled it in an hour and the directions were easy to follow, we do not agree. It took us 3.5 hours to assemble. Some pictures were not easy to follow. The delivery was left in the driveway. The box is VERY heavy. Plan on two people to put this piece together. We are satisfied with the product but the delivery and assembly was difficult.
