Bed exceeded our expectations! It came very well wrapped. It took only 45 minutes to assemble (by an expert). The only thing I would recommend is getting a 12  mattress if you dont like to see any space in the back of the bed. I think a 10  mattress would fall short.
The bed is sturdy, and the navy blue velvet is high-quality fabric. The color is as pictured online. I loved it! Would definitely recommend it!
