Pretty Good for a day bed.  We bought the dark gray(not velvet) and it is a very dark charcoal. We have it in a room where kids use it as a sofa to watch tv as well.  
The drawers are better than I expected.  They are very flimsy but, they actually latch onto the bed to latch it closed.  You lift up on the drawer to unlatch the drawer.  It’s actually a krafty little feature.  Great for anything like sheets, toys or hide gifts. I also got the recommended mattress height that was recommended in the description.  We also bought the wayfair mattress.  You could get a higher mattress if you wanted, but the 8 inch if I recall correctly was recommended. For watching tv the higher back is good.  It won’t be in a room used often.  As for everyday use, it would be good for early teens to use daily,
