The bed is very good quality and the white paint is very nice. It matches the white from pottery barn which I think is “French white”. It is very sturdy and was easy to put together. It was packaged very well. Some pieces had scratches but I realized later that those were the slats that the mattress was going on top of so it is not seen. I am very happy with the bed, with the price and delivery service! My daughter is 9 and loves her new bed and desk.
