Size and construction of bench are very nice, it would have been a 5 star purchase if it had been the color shown online. There is nothing gray about the wood tone and the linen upholstery leans heavily toward the cream/yellow side. I was hoping it would be more gray/greige. Doesn't work in the room where I'd planned to use it. If you want blond/natural wood and creamy linen then this is the bench for you. If you need something more gray don't buy this one!
