It is very sturdy and feels very well made. The top is clean crisp white, the wood is a darker shade and looks great with our other furniture. Very easy to assemble but it is quite heavy. Looking at the end table now to match this peice. Unfortunately it did arrive with a damaged top corner. They are sending a new table and I have to find a home for the busted one, which seems like an odd way of handling it but atleast they replaced it with ease! Took some photos, sent an email and the response was very quick. Will shop here again.
