Ordered this to match a desk for my husbands office and also ordered the larger filing drawer in the collection as well. The color has a cherry tone to it and not a true brown but still looks great. It came in a few pieces but the instructions are excellent and did not have any trouble putting it together. I was alone and did not need an assistant as they suggested for a couple of the instructions. Was worried it might be missing some screws etc. as it seems is always the case but all the parts and pieces were there and clearly marked. Overall very pleased with the product and would strongly recommend this for the price point.
