Ordered the dark gray, and love how dark it looks. I also like how the head board is tall enough to see even with pillows. 
It did take 3 hours to put together but it was worth the time when it was all finished. 
We also had some issues with the shipping. Bed comes in 3 boxes and only 2 came. Called customer service and they had the missing box overnighted and received the very next day. They were great!
