The table is just as described, there are no surprises once you receive it. Very distressed look with plenty of the grey/iron showing through the paint. Drawers are not super high quality, but they work. Gave this 4 stars only because of assembly. It would have been great and super easy but I couldn't get a few of the holes to line up so had to get help with the last few screws. I did get this on sale, not sure I would have paid full price for it.
