It is heavy and color is similar to picture. However, the texture look and feel like plastic not wood. If you are looking for durability this might work, if you prefer wood texture and feel, look elsewhere.

Okay, so this arrived well-packaged and all parts included. And it's heavy! It went together very easily. It seems super strong and should hold up well under any kind of normal wear, including kids rough housing or whatever. It looks nice in our space. The one thing I'm not crazy about, and why I'm only giving it three stars, is how it feels. It's made of manufactured wood and is wrapped in some type of plastic or laminate. It doesn't feel like wood, and if you look closely, it doesn't pass for real wood. That said, the plastic wrapping probably makes it impervious to liquids, so spills and whatever would clean up easily and not damage the finish. Perfect table for anyone with kids or animals, but not necessarily a show piece for, say, a formal living room.
