The grey was darker than i thought it would be so I have mixed feelings in regards to that. I don't hate it, but i also don't love it. It's just too much of a hassle to return. The instructions for putting the coffee table together was really good, but there was a manufacturer defect when screwing the top to the metal frame. My husband and I had to adjust the placement because the pre-drilled holes did not align on both sides.
It's not horrible, the storage is really nice compared to my previous coffee table. If it wasn't for the color and defect this would have been a 5 star.
