The size of the bed is 7 feet long and 6 feet wide. There has been no change in the color of the bed. It is just as it was when bought. Only one of the two side panels of the bed broke, and I joined it back and am using it. It is still sturdy. Four of us sleep in it. At night, it becomes a bit cramped for four people to sleep, which is why we want to sell it and buy a bigger bed.
