Chair is much darker then it looks.  More a lighter brown then beige.  Unfortunately this doesn't work with my beige/white bedroom.  Its also too wide for the space I intended, but thats my fault.  I cant speak on how high or low it sits, because i didnt even put it together (once I saw the color) Now they do have a lighter colored option for this chair, so i called to exchange but was told Joss & Main doesn't do exchanges?!  The cheapest return option means I lose over $50 (the chair itself was only $150!).  So i'm not very happy right now.  I've ordered several items and referred friends to this site... but that will likely stop now.  too bad...
