We bought this set for our teenage son's bedroom upgrade. It looks as good in person as it does in the ad. The black finish is nicely done and the handle hardware in the satin nickel looks great with the finish. The color looks great in a light brown room, and awesome with the khaki, cream and red bedding and window coverings we have for it. The delivery process went quickly, less than a week, and for the most part, smoothly. The chest had a crushed corner on top, which we didn't see until it was all the way out of the packaging. Overstocks sent out a new one to replace it with minimal time and hassle. While the ad indicated "assembly required", the only thing to put together was the footoard and headboard, and attaching the mirror to the dresser. Our only negative is the drawers don't slide all that smoothly, but they are roomy and hold all our son's clothes, easily. Overall, we feel the set was a good value and works perfectly for its intended purpose.
