We got this to go with a dining table, so I wanted something that was firm and high enough for eating, and this seems like it will work. Still waiting on the table, so I haven't really tested it yet.  We got the grey one. The fabric color is pretty close to the image, maybe a bit darker gray, though the legs seem a bit lighter tone. There is a small pull in the fabric which could not have happened in shipping, but not worth the hassle of return. I hope it doesn't cause an issue in long run. It will probably pill so we'll see how it holds up. For now, I'll give it a 4 since i really like the look.
