I was so excited to get my 3 items from wayfair for my office...unfortunately my excitement diminished a little more with each item as they arrived :( This bench, item number 3 I received, is not “white” as the pictures or even some of the reviews say it is...it is “off white” definitely. And the bottom metal is definitely not gold but more of a mustard yellow or brown/gold color. I will be re-painting the metal and most likely putting the piece in another area of my house that it actually will coordinate in bc against a stark white with gold accent desk the 2 just don’t go together at all. I was really hoping this was going to be a great accent piece for my office too. I knew I was taking a risk ordering furniture online but the reviews were so great for all 3 pieces my hopes were maybe just too high.
