The color (rustic brown/black) matches perfectly with a coffee table I have in those same colors. It was true to the colors shown on the website. All of the tools (pegs, screws, etc) came pre-sorted and sealed in separate bags, and included extras just in case you misplace one, which was appreciated. I'm not the best at reading instructions (which were all visual, no written language), but I was still able to assemble it alone (although it took a couple hours). Someone adept at assembling things could put this together very easily in a much shorter period of time. It only took a week to arrive from the time I placed my order.
