We bought this in the dark oak tone and it is just perfect for our entryway.  It was not difficult to put together at all and with a few decorative pillows, has really livened up my otherwise dreary entryway.  The baskets are perfect to hide gloves, scarves, etc and the cubbies fit my kids shoes for quick pick up before we walk out the door.  It came with a minor chip in it and I called Wayfair and they presented me with 10% off, which was great since my husband did not want to take it apart and send it back. Great customer service!
