The bed is very pretty! I think it's more of a silver color but it does pick up tones in your room so it will match easily - next to white it is very silver/grey, next to tan it is more taupe. I have a sleep# adjustable base bed and this frame works fine (just left off the extra feet and inside rails). We did have some issues with it shipping actually too quick - normally would not be an issue but we were out of town thinking it would ship within the stated dates but it actually shipped within a day or two. I was unhappy finding this same item on the sister site a couple weeks later for much less. Also the instructions werent very thorough and one piece didn't fit quite right - I'm sure I'll be the only one to ever notice but a little annoying.
