The bed was very easy to put together and is sturdy and attractive, but it definitely wasn’t white!! I understand that there are multiple shades of white and it’s risky to assume white furniture from different stores will match each other, but this bed looked extremely gray against my white wall trims and other white furniture (the difference was stark). I would call this bed light gray or almost a minty blue gray, but certainly not white. My mom even asked me if they sent me the wrong product! If you want a bed that will match other bright white furniture, don’t purchase this (sadly).
