Overall I loved this set. Good quality and great variation in frame sizes. The book shelves were a bit shorter than I expected, but I guess I could have got out a measuring tape to know for sure what I was getting. They worked out fine though. The color we got was nice, but it did have a bit of a shine to it that I was not expecting. It almost looked like a gold tint. It works fine with my living room decor so it was not a big deal, but it might be for others.
