This unit is made by DMI /Home styles - if you look on their website you can see a number of units in the cottage oak Arts and Crafts collection. If you look at the desks for example they show up apearing darker (they currently do not offer finish samples.)

This is a picture of the unit I received. Not sure if it's an older model, but it works great!

I believe it is just a difference in color. But by the way it does work well and I have had no issues with the unit... Good luck!!!

Mine was a dark brown, like dark woodwork. Looks nice, works good. It sucks up a few bugs too!

Hello E. R.! My sincere regrets on hearing about the issue. A little more information about the actual state of the equipment would be very helpful in assisting. If there is not any backlighting apparent when turning on the unit, it could be a faulty contact under the "On" button or a blown fuse. Was anything spilled on the controller or have you ensured the quality of A/C coming from the wall? If you can, please provide more details on symptoms and what you have tried thus far in troubleshooting. Thanks, and best of luck! :)

Mine is simply black, or very dark grey if you prefer.Great sub, BTW. Very deep frequency response. Handles A LOT of power without distortion. When cranked up, it actually out-speaks my 100w /ch 7.1 reciever with vintage B.I.C. Formula 4 Venturi speakers - I have to set the sub's amp volume to ~70% to achieve good balance. Great bang for the buck. Would easily buy it again.

I would send it back. I have had mine for some time and have had no issues with mine. Sounds like a bad light sensor. Good luck.

I have the same problem. I bought the silver 500G (2/13/10) whose LED lights were totally different from the picture of product! then I googled this "new" one. nothing showed up excepted this discussion. Furthermore the official site has never showed this kinda model. What happened?! I got a fake one?

"Whoa!" The Auto darkening mechanism should be in working order prior to purchase. Mine seems to be working just fine. Itʻll be a good idea / note: to customer service. Thanks for the heads-up just the same.

I'm sorry, but its been a long time since I installed mine. If you could email pictures or diagrams of what your talking about, maybe I could help you.

I bought the stainless one. Installed, there's nothing black on it. If you send me an email address,I can send you a picture.

It's definitely dark. I think it's darker than pictured and is very rich. I'd attach a picture but I'm not sure if I can.

I have the orange and black one. I say it is a little darker than the picture. More of burnt orange. Definitely not redish-orange.

Doesn't look like it but I do not own the unit. Had to Google it. Hopefully someone has it and can answer you for sure
