I did a ton of research to find the perfect bed, and ended up choosing this because of the good reviews and reasonable price. Beautiful bed! Arrived quickly and was packaged super well, no damage whatsoever. Fairly easy to put together, but definitely a two person job. Pretty heavy duty, and the fabric is a really pretty medium gray. My only complaint is that unless you position the headboard directly against a wall, it will definitely move a bit if you lean on it. Most likely because the headboard is so heavy, it could use some extra supports. Otherwise, this is a nice bed for the price.
