This set looks exactly as pictured once it's all put together. Great quality. Shipped quickly. I'm giving it 5 stars, but am also giving realistic expectations to those purchasing. First off, I LOVE THE SET! It's definitely worth the price paid. One thing you may consider though... whether or not to purchase the assembled furniture option. As you may see in my pictures, this entire set comes in a fairly small box. It was package by an apparent Tetris expert from the 80's. ALL of the pieces someway, somehow, fit in that one box. Incredible. What's more incredible though, is how many pieces there were... and how poorly the directions were written. My man & I got it together in just under 2 hours, but not without some repeat efforts. Oh, and by the way, he's an engineer. You won't be disappointed in the quality, but be prepared for some real assembly efforts. Enjoy!
