This is a nice looking, solid coffee table. It was easy for my husband to put together – even though it shipped without instructions. It is a very dark brown with a hint of cherry. I originally ordered the furniture 123store Manhattan coffee table based on the color. I was wanting dark brown and definitely not black, so this works very well. Finish is just beautiful and the pieces are very sturdy. What value for the price! This is my first time buying furniture online and I am totally satisfied, because of their Coupon Codes. We can able to save lots of money through this purchase. Extrememly sturdy. My only complaint was that there was a big break in one piece when it was shipped to me. Otherwise I love the table.
