Beautiful bed for the price. 
Makes our bedroom look grand and is pretty sturdy. 
Took about 1.5 hrs to assemble by myself. 
Definitely need some box springs, we have a "bed in the box" mattress and i think the depth fits perfect for the bed. 
It is spot on with beige color, if you have gray walls, the bed looks very beige but we love it either way. 
Would recommend!
