Is the espresso finish at all reddish, or more a flat dark brown? Some "espresso" finishes are warmer like cherry. I'm trying to match another brand.

The unit is more brown. With that being said, if you need a new piece from Storkcraft when putting the unit together, they ask you numerous questions about where the unit was made, the lot number and when it was manufactured. This tells me that even their own furniture does not match other pieces from month to month or year to year. They do not consistently match their stains.

Mine was in espresso; a very dark brown. It looks great but has a cruddy lock on it.

I bought the espresso and it is a nice deep brown. I don't know about "marrying" the two. I probably wouldn't. If they are the same manufacturer then they are probably different shades of brown. I hope this helps.

Yeah, I ordered the brown. It's pretty close to what is shown in the display. Not great for an espresso table. Ah well, safety first.

I ordered these in Espresso and the legs are a dark brown. They also come in black and dark cherry, I believe.

I think it looks espresso, but there are definitely reddish tones in it. Mine is in a room with a lot of sunshine streaming in. In the sunlight you can see the red more, but at night it appears darker. I think it can be used with other woods that are dark, but I also think it's fine to mix woods. By the way ... I really love the table! Very functional, beautiful, and compact!

I wouldn't call this color distressed black at all (even though that's what the item description for this says on many websites. It's more of a dark brown espresso color, with little streaks of a lighter brown to give it that "aged" effect. I think the brown color in the pics of this listing are pretty accurate to it's in person appearance. Either way, it's definitely not black.

This is a dark espresso. It has no red overtones that I can see. It will probably need re tightened a couple weeks after you put it together.

It is dark - not that esspresso black/brown but more of a dark brown with a bit of reddish undertone. Hope that helps. I love mine!

It's definitely got a reddish tinge. I'd say it's somewhere between cherry and espresso.

Mine seems a little more in the brown range of cherry, or dark cherry. My box actually said expresso, which it was not. I think your description of brown with red highlights is good. I hope this helps.

Mine was espresso as well. They do have a cherry version, so I imagine this is a cut and paste error on their part. :)

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

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's espresso, very dark but not totally black, it has kind of reddish streaks.

I would describe it as the warm brown walnut, a little darker than pictured, not as solid or dark as the typical espresso finish. It's really lovely and goes with lots of decor. I've had a million compliments on it, too, for style and function. Love this piece.

i would say it is more black than brown. it's labelled as espresso (brown-black?) though.
