The bed is awesome. Very easy to assemble, comes very well packed with all the screws and spare ones also. You just need one all-in-key. We took beige, but it is definitely light grey. That was also our goal, since we read some reviews saying that the color is not beige, but light grey. It was delivered in 3 days, and brought up to our flat by delivery guys. For now we are very happy with our purchase, let s see if sth changes after some time spent using the bed.
