Delivery by Wayfair was as usual fantastic. The chairs were packaged very well. Building the chairs was the easiest thing I have ever put together. The instructions were great. The color is a true gray and the seat an unpainted pine. Everything was great until I sat on it. It is the most uncomfortable chair I’ve ever sat on. There is no bend to the back or the seat. It’s just a flat board. Hopefully it’s as easy to take apart as it was to put together.
