Love this bed. It arrived in a box that had been ripped and trashed, and one of the metal bedframe rails was bent. (Luckily no damage to the fabric.) Notified Wayfair, and they sent me replacement metal rails. Once all the parts arrived, it was easy to assemble and turned out to be lovely to look at. I read before I go to sleep, and the padded headboard is comfortable to lean against with a pillow. I got the lightest color, and it's a soft oatmeal with a little nubby texture to it. Great against a Caribbean-blue wall. Looks fresh and inviting.
