Almond Color Not as Pictured ( Do I have to Sand and Stain It?) Assembly Not Smooth
The color in the photos for Almond do not match what arrived. The picture looks more like a neutral brown but a very red toned wood showed up. Oddly enough the item looks more like the color of an almond. However I expect the item to look like it does in the photo, and that is where it failed. During assembly we couldnt get the outside frame pieces to fit together flush. Then when putting in the middle support slats they were too long or too short, we found that we had to rotate the center support beam that goes across around then the pieces fit better. In the end the frame seems study ( if I have issues I will report back), the color is the most disappointing as now my options are to return it or sand and restain it. I CAN NOT imagine retuning this since its so heavy and the boxes are so long it wont fit it my car. For the price I would have at least hoped that the color matched the picture. Ugh I wish I loved the color and I could look past the assembly issues and price.
