True to color and size - Dark Brown. I bought 3 different sizes and 2 were used in the same room to complement each other.  Not as thick as I wanted it to be, since it is hard to judge from pictures on line. However, my dog loves to lay on it at my feet while I am in the bathroom. Too early to tell how it will hold up against constant use and washing. It is in a half bath that receives a lot of foot traffic.
