The cabinet is as pretty as it looks in the pictures. I needed to fit very specific dimensions in my space and this cabinet fit the bill perfectly. It is a very pretty addition to my space. I do like the color/tone of of the piece. It really could go with a variety of design styles: coastal, farmhouse, boho... I realize the description said it was part solid wood, part MDF. It did come fully assembled in perfect condition and indeed is lightweight. However, though there is mortise and tenon joinery, the piece does feel like it has more MDF than I was hoping. Someone else mentioned the rough texture of the shelves and that is the case - not sure why since they're MDF. But it is pretty spacious inside. The whitewash looks great all around. Overall, I am pleased with this piece. Note though that I got it on a pretty good sale so feel it was worth the sale price.
