I bought the black and its a nice matte color.
Very sturdy and attractive!
The only thing I have bad to say about it is the instructions are horribleand I dont mean hard to understand, I mean they are just WRONG!
The two inside boards should be put together outside the wood boards, not the inside as shown in the directions.. also the screws should be screwed in from the inside, not the outside.
Finally, before you screw in the left end of the bench make sure the back is fitted into the grooves THEN screw the second side in, otherwise you will have to take it apart to get it to fit.
Regardless of the HORRIBLE instructions I was still able to get it put together within an hour by myself, even having to redo and refigure things.
Actually the baskets gave me the most trouble just because its hard to keep the square stable while trying to screw into such a small hole.
None the less I am happy with the final result and it is exactly what I was looking for at a decent price. (I paid 192 at the time and I couldnt find a better price anywhere for the size)
I would definitely recommend this product!
Just use yoyr common sense in putting it together
Have a seat!
