I LOVE this bed! It’s just what my primary bedroom needed to stand on its own and make a statement in the space. It’s good quality, especially for the price! I looked, and the similar styled beds in the big chain stores were 2, 3, 4 times as expensive. The color in the photo looks more taupe. In my room it can look beige but it depends on the time of day and lighting. (The room is on the north side of the home and gets light in those north windows)
