Color is spot on from pictures, however this (and the rest of the set - bed and nightstands) was a beast to put together. Came in about 30 pieces so be ready to make an afternoon of it. Also, be aware some of the angles of screws are really difficult to get to with a drill so you may have to hand tighten some screws, unless you want a wobbly dresser. Additionally, don't over-tighten as it will lead to the drawers not sliding in smoothly and getting caught on the rails. All in all, it's ok and looks nice but wish I would have just spent a couple hundred more to get a dresser that was already assembled.
