I absolutely love the distressed white color. It's a perfect addition to our living room and adds a homey feel. It has two issues 1.  A screw hole was off but my husband having had working in a cabinet shop before for many years fixed it. 2 the sticker on the front of the fireplace will take time to get off. And it does take a few hours to assemble.  But it is totally worth it.  It's beautiful.  And I can't wait to decorate it for fall, Halloween,  Thanksgiving and Christmas!!
