I purchased this bench for my small front entryway.  I was initially unsure about the color, described as "off-white", but when it arrived I was thrilled because it was darker than I had expected.  I would call it an antique white.  The wood grain shows through nicely, and it seems to have both gray and brownish undertones, so blends well with other colors nearby.  I love that it came fully assembled - I only had to screw the legs on and voila, instant bench!  The storage space is only 11" deep, so cannot store tall boots, but we were able to put 8 pairs of shoes (layered) inside.  Looks beautiful and is very functional.
