This bed is fantastic. I'm a designer and have received many compliments on it. The colors of the headboard/footboard are slightly more washed out than the photos suggest, (more of a beige/taupe hue) which is why I docked it a star. Substantial and solid, definitely well made. I love a solid headboard as I do a lot of work from bed! I took a quick pic, but we're still moving in, so excuse the clothes on the bed and the moving box nightstands!
