Any more answers about the actual color? This would be going beside a bed frame that's REALLY dark brown - so dark that unless you're up close it looks black. Many companies refer to that color as "Black/Brown" or "Espresso"; is this night stand that...

This night stand is pure black and is better the i even thought iy would be. Drawers slide easy,and there is allot of space for books and other things in the cubby .

It is truly brown/black...not flat black nor brown. It is "warmer" than black. I hope that helps. If not, I suggest you look at some furniture to get a "feel" for the color. It's quite popular.

Dark espresso brown. Same finish as many Target espresso bookshelves. Super sturdy, beautiful when together... but use another set of hands as the directions state as it would be difficult without.

It is very dark brown. However, I have it next to some black furniture and some chocolate furniture and it looks great by both.

I would say it's dark brown, but I wouldn't call it espresso. To me it has a hint of reddishness...enough so that we have it paired with a cherry crib and it doesn't look mismatched. I wouldn't pair it with a flat dark brown.

There are 2 choices for this ottoman, black or dark espresso. I ordered the dark espresso and it is a very dark brown.

It matches my Ikea 'black/brown' bedroom furniture perfectly! So I don't know if that really makes it black, but it's very, very dark.

really dark brown. it almost matches some chocolate colored knit sheets I have. You can really tell the difference if you put something black next to it.

I would say a REALLY dark chocolate brown. I have the matching mate's bed and bought patterned bedding with blue and dark brown and it looks great! I love the piece - looks nice and great storage!

I have mine next to a cherry console table and it is not the same color, it darker and more brown. It works for me as it has a hint of red in the dark brown color. It is a dark brown with a hint of cherry color but darker than the online picture. In my opinion espresso is brownish black and this table is not that. As for the assembly, it was a snap and it's very sturdy for my purposes.

It is a very dark brown, like an espresso color. It could almost pass for black.

There is not black but a very dark espresso brown that may go with it. My bedroom has beige walls with black wrought iron wall hangings and it looks great.

Its a rich chocolate brown with a slight red undertone. We have it with espresso dressers and those are almost black it looks a little mismatched to be honest.

It is not black. It is a very dark brown. Matches most of the esspresso/cappuccino furniture colors.

It is sold as espresso, and is a very very dark brown that looks almost black. Allot of furniture has that color finish these days. It's well built, and sturdy with heavy canvas stitched straps, and not stapled.

I have a LOT of "espresso" colored furniture and this piece is hands down on the redish side. It's definitely NOT black... just a deeper brown with a hint of red.
