I was very impressed with these nightstands. For one, they were packaged extremely well with styrofoam and wood pieces to pad it. The nightstand comes assembled, you just have to attach the legs (simple; two bolts each) and reverse the handles (they are attached on the insides of the drawers for shipping). They are surprisingly heavy - about 90 lbs each, which speaks to the quality of the furniture. I didn’t even realize that there were USB ports on the back, so that was an added bonus for me. The top two drawers are lined with felt while the bottom drawer is bare wood, which I thought was nice as it gives you some options depending on what you plan on putting in there. I would say the color pretty much matched the photos online; maybe slightly darker in person. I bought these and the matching 7-drawer dresser to contrast my dark wood bed and it looks great. Would definitely recommend.
