Yeah, I'm not looking for the wow factor at all, but want to avoid regretting the finish.
The black looks like Home Depot mdf shelving to me. The maple is too bleached white for my liking. I like the Boston Cherry, but really don't have anything that dark in the room where they will eventually end up.
If the Beech doesnt look cheap or cheezy, then it will probably fit well in the living room currently with the oak hardwood floor and later when I move to the knotty pine trimmed rec room. I'm leaning towards the Beech, but the Cherry looks nice.
Anybody got any pics of Beech in their homes??
