The desk is exactly how it looks in the picture. Very classy, easy to install. I had a desk before and wanted to try this site for furniture and I am pleased I tried it. One piece came broken, we called customer service and they very quickly shipped the exact piece again. Wonderful customer service. I have now become a Wayfair first customer and my friends  who have used it following our suggestions have been pleasantly pleased with their products. Way to go!
