I struggled between 4-5 stars with this tv stand. I really love the look of it, but I feel like the advertising was slightly misleading. We thought we were getting solid wood with distress marks, but it’s really a lot of mdf with laminate. It’s very pretty but not super high quality. The wood color is not completely white - it’s between an off white and a grey color. The jug in my picture next to it is a pure white if you need a comparison. For the price, this is a great tv stand, but it was also very difficult to put together. Be prepared to spend a few hours on the assembly.
