I think this is very good for the price. It definitely looks more grey than in the photos, so I appreciated other reviewers pointing that out (the grey looks good in my living room). But you need to be careful and patient while building it because the wood is soft and everything won't fit together "perfectly", even though it looks close-to-perfect when finished. It took me a few hours to build, because I've learned from other furniture that you have to piece these kinds of kits together slowly. Make sure you match their diagrams very carefully so that you don't make mistakes and don't hook anything in too tightly too soon (I usually set everything together and then tighten all the pieces together more carefully at the end so that I don't hurt the wood). The "insides" are rough and unfinished, but the exposed part of this is beautifully rustic. It's light (so it's easy to move), and it looks like its worth a few £100 more than it actually costs.
