I ordered this on Monday & received it on Friday!!! Assembly was simple. The size is perfect, though it seems a bit taller than 42". As for the colour, I wouldn't call it "antique white" or "butterscotch" as did another reviewer, though it does have a distinct yellowish undertone. If you're looking for stark white or eggshell or off white, this isn't for you. I love it, though, and it completely changes the look of my LR. A friend says the room now "looks like a swanky hotel lobby." :)
