Excellent quality wood, easy to put together and looks fabulous.  Furniture is very sturdy and strong, seat cushions are a bit firm at first, but after a few uses are very comfortable.  From the picture I thought the cushions were more cream colored than gray, but am pleased with the grayish color and would highly recommend this product. We tied it in with a mostly brown room by accessorizing with maroons, creams and greens.  We love it!
