Love this console! This fits our space perfectly - and the faux wood looks genuinely realistic, especially on the top. It has a textured/raised feel almost to resemble real wood.  The overall quality isn't the highest, as all of the pieces didn't fit together perfectly, so there's a slight tilt to the one back leg, but that's an easy fix. For the price point, durability, ad overall aesthetic I would still highly recommend this piece.  Additionally this piece wasn't due to be back in stock for another month and a half, and within a week they had more available for purchase - and to top it all off it actually arrived sooner than the projected delivery date. Very satisfied!
