I cant express enough how happy I am with this set. Everything is as pictured only better. Super easy to assemble, no problem with shipping or instructions. Yes it looks like Vegan leather as advertised. I originally wanted a set like this in Authentic Leather however that was too big for my budget. What sold me on this was that it was advertised as Vegan leather vs Genuine leather (which apparently is a new term for Faux) I appreciated the honestly from this manufacturer. I eat plant based so I figured, ok I can do vegan. Lol Anyway this is a great set and it looks stunning.
