We ordered the navy linen and it is a beautiful deep navy blue. It looks much more expensive and luxurious than it was. I put it together by myself (my boyfriend was suspiciously not home when it came time to assemble.) :) and it took me maybe an hour and a half with two dogs climbing all over the place in the midst. The headboard is a little wobbly, but I think once I tighten it up and secure it to the wall it will fix that problem. It did come in two boxes on two separate days, which was a little strange but not a problem in the long run. All in all, LOVE this bed and I would HIGHLY recommend it.
