Finish appearance & color matching

Swatches and product photos are references. Screen settings, room lighting and natural wood grain can change how a finish looks. We cannot guarantee an exact match to your screen or existing furniture.

If a close color match is important, ask Steve and Bob before ordering. We can help compare the available finishes for your selected model. Read the finish guide.

If you decide to return an eligible item because the color is not what you expected, the return terms in Changes, returns, warranty & damage support apply, including the restocking fee and return shipping responsibility.

Planning for freight delivery

Standard freight delivery is curbside. Without liftgate service, you are responsible for unloading your furniture from the truck and arranging the help needed. Driver assistance is not guaranteed. A liftgate lowers the shipment from the truck to ground level; it does not include carrying furniture inside. Liftgate and inside delivery services cost extra and must be arranged in advance.

Additional shipping charges apply to Alaska and Hawaii.
