I bought this hoping it would be at least similar in colour to my oak dining table, as they will be in the same room, but the actual colour of the wood is nowhere near that in the picture. If anything, I would say this is a light walnut. Instructions arent great, but doable. The doors are supposed to be soft closing. They are the push to open latches instead. Unfortunately, the predrilled holes were too far back on both sides, so I cant open the doors without having to open a drawer first. Also, the gold design (drawer, handles, and feet) is actually more of a greenbronze colour. Other than that, its nice, just very disappointed with the colour.
