This thing is great! I love the look of it, and it holds up well to vigorous activities The only downsides I can think of:
1) it is a bit lower than I would prefer (boyfriend is 6'4 and I am 5'9) so when we get out of bed its a little on the low side. The mattress we put on it is 12 thick, so a good portion of the headboard still shows.
2) because it is low there s not too much clearance under the bed for extra storage. Thin boxes would fit, but nothing like the totes I stored under my other bed
3) it takes awhile to put together and has several pieces. I am an experienced putter-together-er and it took me a couple hours to assemble with an extra person needed for some of the assembly to hold parts. You will need a drill to put the slats on the frame
The color is beautiful and light, perfectly neutral. The silver nail heads are shiny and compliment my lamps perfectly.
beautiful sturdy bed
