This bed was easy to put together, the only struggle was lining up the headboard ends. Having two people helps. But looking at other reviews photos helped to see where all the pieces went. I order the grey it’s a medium light grey but not really light like some of the other reviews said. Very sturdy doesn’t move. There was a chipped corner but it’s on one of the back side headboard ends so you can’t see it, we have a king and there is gaps on the side of the bed so you can tuck blankets in for a cleaner bed made look.
