I ordered the steel.  In the listing it looked gray with a potential hint of purple.  In my opinion the color is more of a taupe.  Doesn’t work with my room.  Grayish steel color would’ve worked.  Nice and solid fill, but does have a distinct bean bag sound to it.  Doesn’t work for any of my needs, other than it was the right size.  3 stars for the designcraftsmanship...would’ve only given 1 for color matching description.
