The pantry looked exactly like the photo.  It was well packaged so that none of the pieces were scratched or chipped.  The assembly instructions could have been a bit clearer.  But I've been using the pantry for a couple weeks now and am quite pleased with the purchase.  I love that the shelves are adjustable and that it has upper and lower doors.  It's also just the right height as I am able to store items on top of the pantry and can easily reach to retrieve them.
