We really underestimated how small this bed is. Knowing it was a platform bed we did our best to visualize the measurements but it really resembles a toddler bed in how short the headboard is. A bit disappointing since we bought for our 12 year old. The bed itself is really cute, soft velvet and beautiful grey color. One of the side rails velvet is a different shade of grey which is a bummer but since our full sized quilt hangs to the floor it covers the color variation. Would be a 5 star bed if it were just a little 
bigger.
