It was not the same color as pictured. Much lighter and golden than the distressed, washed out/sun beaten look I was going for. That being said, very sturdy chair and it came fully assembled which I really appreciated after having to assemble the other chairs I bought.Flash Furniture Advantage Hand Scraped Dark Natural X-Back Chair4.3 out of 5 stars 134 ratings-48% off $104.19List Price: $199.95FREE ReturnsI paid $104.19 per chair. Tax was added to order.I was really excited to open the boxes when the chairs arrived today. I had ordered 2 of these chairs for my mother, but I failed to change the address to have them delivered to her. I'm so glad I made that mistake. I decided to check them before taking the chairs to her house.The finish was not what I expected at all. The chairs were grayish, I was expecting something in more of a brown color.When we took them out of the box the chairs felt and looked like they were weathered. All of the surfaces of chair felt very rough. I gently rubbed my finger over the surface and a splinter came loose. If I had been moving at regular speed I would have had to pluck that splinter out of my finger.In my opinion these chairs would need to be sanded to prevent snags and splinters.If your wanting something that looks and feels like an abandoned piece of furniture, this is a great chair.However, if you want something with a nice finish, this won't do.I am returning both chairs. They are not on Prime, but they have free returns.It's a shame they didn't work out. The other reviews sounded good. I did see one reviewer that said the surface of the chairs was rough. I figured that person just happened to get a bad chair.I wonder if other colors might have a nicer surface.Chairs arrived fully assembled in excellent packaging. I was amazed at the quality as they were well finished and sturdy. I would buy again!Just what I was looking for! I ordered the Lime wash and it came already put together wrapped up very nicely. I ordered one to see if it fit well with my table and I love it! Will be ordering 3 more! Thank you!I'm so pleased with these chairs in my dining room and couldn't be happier. The chairs were a STEAL compared to Serena and Lily. However, you cannot tell the difference. High end quality and feel. Also, packaged very well. Thank you!Absolutely beautiful exactly what I was looking for!Chairs are sturdy construction and they look great in my dining room. Did have a problem on the bottom of one of the chairs. But Amazon took care of the problem. I received credit on the chair and was able to repair it.Great chairs
