I am extremely happy with the color of the chairs. The color is just like the customer photo shows, not like the one in the advertisement. More of a gray tone. There are imperfections I would expect from wicker so I do  wonder how long they will last, but for the price they are great. One thing I am having a problem with is finding a cushion to fit the chair. I wish they would have come with cushions like many of the other wicker options. For what it costs to get custom cushions I could have just gone with a more expensive chair and saved myself the hassle.
