The description  of the chair was black/cherry. The seat is much lighter than I  expected. Almost oak with a cherry tint . Still very nice contrast. Seems durable came with seat attached  to back sturdy  well glued the rest of assembly  easy. It claims  to  hold  up to 350 pounds so for the price and convenience 5 stars.Still wish the seat just a hint more red.

Pros: sturdy. easy to assemble 
Cons: color not a true cherry,much lighter.
