I have this table in the cherry shade.  I bought it to replace a  trunk used as a coffee table.  I wanted something less bulky and this is wonderful for the space. The color is true to the shade shown and simple to put together. It has a small area that look as if the stain didn't cover on the tabletop. Tried covering with a product made for scratches, but it wouldn't take.  Also it was delivered wthin a couple of days! Would definitely recommend!
