It ended up being a different color of gray than I thought. The picture made it appear to be a solid gray but in actuality it is striated. The material is ok but I hate that the back of it is essentially a piece of cardboard. I wish it would have been the same material as the rest of the piece. I'm going to keep it because it's too much of a hassle to return since it's already put together but I'll get a better quality piece in the future.
