We purchased two of these chairs to use with the expanding table from Wayfair.  We chose the red ones.  When I phoned Wayfair, they said it was a true red.  I was disappointed that from a distance, the color appears to be more of a rust because of the gold pattern in it.  It is still workable with our other furnishings so we kept them.

Pros: Great value!
Cons: The chairs "crackle" after sitting in them.
