Beautiful bed! Arrived in two separate shipments, both boxes the worse for wear. Some pieces damaged tears to the interior fabric, wood split where the screw go in etc. Not in areas that would have been affected by the damages boxes though. Almost like someone else tried assembling it before. Luckily I figured I a work around with the split wood and the damages were not visible once the bed was assembled. Once assembled it is incredibly sturdy. Color is exactly as pictured. Took off one star for the pre-existing damage
