We purchased this bed for my 15 year old son and he had the best sleep ever.  We chose the beige over the grey and it's nice colour.   A little darker than the picture but not much difference.   The headboard is nice and bit shorter than the picture but it all depends on the height size in the mattress too.   We bought an 8" mattress foam from Wayfair too and he has enough headroom.  It is a low bed so older people might not like this type but for us it's great! Very sturdy bed and it was easy to put together and all tools were in the kit so we didn't have to use our own.  The only disappointing part was that Fed Ex dropped it off at the bottom of our  driveway without ringing the door bell.  A little disappointing on FedEx's part but we love using Wayfair!
