This bed looks like it costs more than what I paid.  The color is a true beige. It arrived in one large box, several days before the estimate. At first look, it looks like parts are missing but they were located on the back of the headboard in a zipper pouch.  It was easy to assemble, took about thirty to 45 minutes.  Make sure you have a power drill handy for the screws at the end of assembly. Feels sturdy under the weight of two adults. Does not require a box spring.  I would definitely recommend.
