Bought desk in walnut. Color true to what I expected. Has an obvious faux weathered finish, which doesn't bother me but FYI for other shoppers. Pleasantly surprised that the only assembly was securing the legs (e.g. super easy/quick). Didn't expect cherry-like quality but thought "solid pinewood" would feel heavier. Seems sturdy enough, though. At the right price, I would buy this desk again for its simplicity and functionality.
