It's a really beautiful cart, we are using it as a bar cart. The wood color is true to the pictures, a nice darker brown color. It feels very sturdy and it's a great size. The wine bottle and glass racks feel really sturdy as well. I gave it 4 stars because it doesn't roll very well and it was a little difficult to put together. The last shelf that you put in according to the instructions (the bottom shelf) was difficult to fit in - we had to unscrew the frame slightly and then tighten after we got the shelf in place. But with 2 people it took about an hour.
