Got this in white with the brown top.  It is a true white and the top is a medium to dark brown.  Not reddish, not light brown. I had it put together by a handyman and he said it was a little bit difficult but it turned out really nice.  I love it.  It does not look like cheap put-it-together yourself furniture.  It looks really nice and substantial, not undersized like junk furniture and goes with my white and brown table and chairs really well.
