Colour is more yellow toned wood than the product pictures show, however having read the reviews and seen other peoples photos I knew that this would be the case so it is not a problem for me. Took one person about 2 hours to put together as there are lots of parts and some not labeled. The finished item is very nice and looks more traditional or old than most flatpack, as it's made with solid wood rather than MDF and laminate. Only problem is that one drawer is very stiff but we will sandpaper the groove to make it open easier.
