Lighting makes it look more yellow—it’s definitely a nice light beige color. It was super easy to put together and while the directions might take rereading a couple of times. The only more challenging piece is putting the back onto the bottom. But if you lay it flat as the directions￼ say, you can push down to get the holes to line up.

I like the rocking feature and the updown is smooth. 

Super comfy sitting normal or cross-legged -)
