Thinking of getting oatmeal color but concerned about the reviews that say it is too dark?

I got oatmeal colored headboard by Skyline I love it. It is almost like a light beige

I bought the Oatmeal and it seems light and soft and airy in color to me. I do not think it is dark at all. It looks even better in person than in photos. It has the sheen of suede and matches my calm sea colors theme with light blue and light green. It is the Khaki/Oatmeal color that brings it all together.

I didn't get the oatmeal color. I got the purple. It was fine, my daughter (7yrs old) loves it. It match her decor. If you do get it. Just let it air out a bit because of the smell of the cushion. It will be gone in a couple of days.

This is not a light cream. I would say the darkest oatmeal pieces, a light tan. But it is definitely not dark. It's a great neutral.

It's not dark at all, it's a little darker then the picture but it for sure looks like an "oatmeal" color

"Too Bright" or "Just Right" is a matter of personal preference and perception. To me, the blue light is no problem at all. The reason why electronic manufacturers have started to use blue instead of red, orange, green, etc is that it is a pleasing color and not harsh to most eyes. If you sleep with your eyes open, it might be a problem but, under normal circumstances, it is not too bright. Most night lights are much brighter than the Orsani LED's.

I just carried mine out into the sun and it is very very dark black. I baked with it with yummy results and will use it in fondant for a rich black (along with food color).

Honestly I think you may have to play around with it to find the right one. I bought natural and it was a little too dark, you can always buy a lighter shade to mix with one that's too dark. Your best bet is to go to a store and actually hold one to your skin before you order online. Also try the Loreal website

Hi, I have this banquette and love it! It actually is more of an oatmeal color. I can send you a pic of mine close up if that's helpful. Not sure the easiest way to privately send me your email but happy to help.

It's hard to make out in the product picture because they used cold lighting but it's more of a deep rich brown, like you'd expect of some furniture. I'd say it's...darker than milk chocolate and just lighter than dark chocolate if that helps at all..? Can't think of another reference at the moment."Espresso" works. But take into consideration that the room lighting will play a HUGE difference in your color. My nursery was more dimly lit so it seemed almost black. When I moved it to another room with large windows good sun exposure, it was unmistakably brown.

It can look dark if you put a good amount on. There are lighter colors and neutral that would work

It's not dark... If anything I would say its exactly as shown on the Amazon picture... Your monitor might be brighter or darker though... Its a charcoal color, not very blue at all, more grey/charcoal for sure...

After looking at the pictures on website, my king size looks more like the color of the queen size. It's not too dark.

Thanks for your interest in the Trieste Bed. The color pictured should be very close to the actual color. This model also comes in a darker chocolate. If you look at this link http://www.hillsdalefurniture.com/Main/Product/SearchWithPaging?SearchFor=trieste&pageIndex=1&resultsPerPage=12 it is Hillsdale's website with some additional photos of the Triest in Buckwheat.

In my opinion, it is not too dark. It doesn't have quite the brightness or glare as without it. It kind of gives it a kindle feel to me, but I prefer that. It slightly diffuses the light, which is why some may feel it is dark. You can tell a difference.

I don't think it would look odd. I think it would look soft and natural. The Dark has three different shades so you can choose the look you want. I like it!

It is pretty much that color. Ours is in a darker corner so it may look just a tad darker. Very nice though. We are very pleased with the purchase.

In that case, the Loreal lotion is the way to go;), don't worry, is going to work out.... If after using this lotion you think you need a darker tone.... Emai me and I will suggest another good one ....

When in doubt, always go light. You may be sorry if you do anything any darker. The dark stains any grain too dark for light wood. (For me anyway.) I would suggest trying Howard's Restore-a-finish in Golden Oak. Won't change the color at all and gives a beautiful finish, but is a little more than just a spruce-up shine. This is wonderful stuff. Maybe your lumber company will have a sample. I bought mine through Amazon as I was already familiar with product. Good Luck.

Hi azbeachgirl. If you can tell me how to tell if the color is Mocha or Sunset, I can check mine and let you know. It is right in front of me in my office.can reach out to me via email if that is easier: mhorist@gmail.com

I agree with Kim Davies. I went to Kohls to look at the colors before I made my purchases... I have the shamrock dinnerware set, and it is not a dark green. I believe it is the lighting on Amazon that makes the color seem dark.
