Love the look of the bed, would prefer the slats holding the mattress to be metal instead of wood. Teenage son has already broke one but he wrestles on the bed and is rough on it. Otherwise I really love this bed. It was definately worth the money
Great bed! Just be careful of the mattress you use with it. Ours is a double sided mattress and so there is not really enough support. You can feel every tiny movement on the bed. But it was easy to put together, I did it myself at 8mo pregnant- in one afternoon. the bed is a good height, and we never hit our shins on the corners or the sides which I've heard is a downside to many platform beds. We will definately keep this bed- even when we upgrade we will use it for our kids. The only downside is that after about 6mo it did start to creak a little ( going to try some WD-40) and the headboard is not really made to hold any weight. ie- leaning against to read and what not. But other than that it's a great bed I would definately reccommend it to anyone- you will not find any better for the price--trust me I looked!!
