Ordered for my son who recently  moved into an apartment. I ordered the gray color. But it actually is more beige. Not sure if they sent the wrong color or if that is the way it actually is. Did not want to hassle the  return since  he liked the color anyway, so we kept it. Piece  seems very sturdy and well-made. He had no trouble putting it together. I noticed in the picture he sent me which, is included in this review,   piping is a little off on the top of the headboard. Shipping didn’t take very long and showed up exactly when they said it would.
