Definitely looks cheaper and less interesting/distinguished in real life than in the pictures - the black is really plain as opposed to the sort of matte slate-y look in the images. The pieces also arrived dirty and scuffed, and a few hardware items were missing. Thereâs a note inside to call the manufacturer to request missing parts so hopefully theyâre responsive. Totally fine overall given the price point, but I was so excited when I ordered it and am now just willing to coexist with this in my room  hence 3 stars...
