REQUIRES A BOXSPRING 
This bed looks great, really love the colour and style.  Like other reviews have mentioned it's more of a greige colour not a true beige, but that's awesome because it's exactly what I wanted.  It took two people about 1.5 hours to fully assemble, the instructions were simple and clear to follow and all the components were labeled.  No extra or missing pieces which is always awesome! 
I missed the note in the details that a boxspring is required with this bed which is why I've put it in bold at the beginning of my review, caused us a bit of a headache to have to go out and buy one but it all worked out in the end.  We went with a low-profile box spring and it is complete hidden by the frame of the bed which I like.
