This is a beautiful piece. The blue is not as pictured, but I think it's even better than the photo. It is more of a muted darker blue rather than turquoise. Solid piece of furniture and I've already received multiple compliments on it. Holds lots of shoes and works great. Only down side when my husband assembled it is one of the doors' predrilled holes are too high up to fasten the hardware which hold the door shut. If we used those holes it would create issues and cause scratches. Luckily the bottom one works so the door stays shut. Other than that it is great! I love it!
