I bought this in the charcoal grey as a neutral colour to go with my bedroom decor.  Once assembled it's a beautiful piece of furniture.  Good and solid with a good amount of padding on the lid.  I would have liked it to be a bit bigger inside, but it works well for what I need it for.  My only issue was with attaching the lid/seat, which was very tricky because it was almost impossible to get it at the right angle to attach the screws to the hinges - it needed to be half-open/closed to do this but was also very heavy because everything else was already fully assembled.  Anyway, I managed it in the end and am pleased with the results.  Everything apart from the lid took 20-25 minutes to assemble.
