This purchase was made for a bathroom remodel, and although we have not yet installed the vanity, it is beautiful in the box. Shipping was very fast (within 2 weeks) and, aside from the difficulty of the truck getting to our house, was uneventful. The vanity was very well packaged to protect the travertine top and all corners from damage/breakage. The finish is deep and rich, a perfect complement to the travertine top and sink. The picture correctly shows the sink- it is a drop-in, not an undermount, that is very well sealed around the edge. The hardware is a nice oil-rubbed bronze. I am very happy with our purchase and cannot wait to get it installed. You can buy this with confidence in knowing you are getting a beautiful piece.
