I love the look of and sturdiness of this bed but when it arrived the wood was orange and looked nothing like the pictures. I knew after reading other reviews that it was a slight gamble that this might happen and we just so happened to get one of the crazy orange stained ones. So like another reviewer I sanded and stained it. It did take 4 good times over with the sander and still the orange was not all of the way gone but it was enough to change the overall tone. I called and let them know and they did not give an allowance like they did for the other reviewer. They just said Id have to return it. But then Id risk another orange one later. So I just went with it. Overall I like the bed and am happy it just took a little time and muscle.
