The dark brown is pretty dark.  But we love it so far. Easy to put together. Reclines in and out easily. We love the cup holder.  Over all it just looks classy.  You can spend $60.00 on a cartoon chair that is smaller.  This chair should fit my 1 year old son for a few years. 

Pros: easy to clean
Cons: Cons..Now my son wants to sit more in his own chair..meaning less cuddle time for me.
