I really like the table and yes the grey is much lighter than shown on website. You can tell from my pic it's a light gray. Its quite solid and came in perfect shape was very well packed & only needed the legs attached, super easy.
 My lack of 5 stars is due to the fact that one of the legs will not go on straight and sits a bit angled because the metal piece to which it attaches is uneven. I will overlook this as getting it back to Wayfair would be too much hassle. Once the chairs (which I bought separately from them) are in place it's not as noticeable. Over all a good purchase and a good price.
