Love these bunkbeds! The color of the wood is gorgeous! It's a cherry red, I used the 10 inch mattresses from Wayfair as suggested and it fits in there beautifully. I am so happy with this purchase,  and my husband said they were easy to put together,  my son and daughter-in-law slept in the bottom bunk and the grandkids slept on top and they said it was very comfortable!
