We bought this at the end of season last year and just put up last weekend.  Colors are true to the picture.  Installation instructions were truly  terrible!!  And as mentioned in other reviews, the quality of parts are 100% China.  That said, comparable awning sizes are 3-4 times the cost.  And after a pool, and cabana (that we put up ourselves as we are super handy) we had to stop the bleeding.  Time will tell if it lasts
