   I bought this crib from Amazon and I must say it is beautiful. The cherry color is a bit dark but it is rich. I would call it close to mahogany. The way that is designed, the backboard holds my sons aquarium very nicely with the wider panel of wood. I haven't had any issues with the drawer, it works well and I am able to store things down there, it also adds to the athletics of the crib. The crib is sold wood except for the bottom of the drawer which is more of that thin fake wood, it holds clothes in there nicely but I wouldn't put heavy items in there. Lastly For your info, the bottom drawer is divided into two sections, left and right. Very nice crib, it seems to be very sturdy and it looks excellent in my son's jungle themed room.

   When I found out that I was pregnant I was given a crib just like this one from a friend who got it from Babies R Us. The box said that the color was cherry. So when I found out that I was having twins I wanted to get another just like it so that they could have matching cribs. I shopped around for a few months and found that Amazon had the same crib in cherry for a much cheaper price w/ free shipping. When I received the crib, it was cherry but much darker than the one I received as a gift. Yay. The other problem w/ this crib is the drawer underneath it doesn't work to well. Other than that the crib is very beautiful. We are enjoying it very much.
