Looks great, the marble look appears and looks like actual marble almost. I read a lot of reviews before purchasing and I took a chance. I am pleasantly surprised my order was very very good. Nothing damaged or broken and base is sturdy enough. It looks really nice and enhances the room it is in. Based on other reviews, I guess sometimes you'll get bad orders. So far I have not gotten a single bad order. This media console is super nice and looks great. Assembling does take a while, but with 2 people it's not too bad. I would recommend it. Read other reviews but believe me on this review, this is an order you'll really like!
