I really wanted to love this more, but it wasn't exactly it for me. I had to let all the pieces air out for a bit because they had a strong odor upon opening the box. It cleared eventually. The color is such as dark brown that it really looks black, even in the daylight. The table was very easy to put together. Even though I looked at the measurements, it is much smaller than what I pictured in my head. Not enough surface area for what we need. The chairs, however, were much more challenging because of the angle of the screws and the length of the allen wrench that came with it. It was very time consuming. The cushions on the chairs are very comfy, but again, the color is way too dark. Also, get felt pads for these chairs because they will scratch the floors. This just didn't work for me. Luckily, my brother just got his first place and he isn't as picky about style, so it's not a total loss.
