I looked for a changing table for months both online and in stores. This one I didnt even see and it was a much better pick than any of the ones I saw in the stores. Very dark cherry wood, love the 4 sides, very safe. You will want to get a diff. changing pad, one that comes with it is to thin. Hubby put together in about 30 min. The two shelves are very generous as far a space and its just a beauitiful table.. very impressed.
