I love our new bed. It is sturdy and the colour is a mix of gold, dark brown and cherry wood colour. Our other furniture is cherry wood and I thought I would have to change it but after receiving the bed with a slightly different tone than I expected it matches great. As my husband was reading the setup instructions he realized they were not for our bed. He figured it out quickly with no instructions so easy to put together but it helps that he is handy. This is why I took one star off. It was delivered early which made me even happier.
