It is exactly as shown in the picture, a perfect color match.  Keep in mind two things - make sure you measure, these benches (this style of bench, all of them, not just this one) are a little bit shorter than you might expect.   Also, this was very difficult to assemble. The pieces didn't quite match up perfectly, it took a little bit of finessing.  Assembly Tip: don't tighten the screws all the way until you've got it standing up and mostly put together.  You need the give in order to get some pieces to align.
