Pros: The bed arrived without any damage, and was relatively easy to put together by myself, but even faster with 2 people. The whole bed fits in the headboard, which can be handy when moving. Seems sturdy so far. The headboard is a good height, and comfortable to lean against.

Cons: The headboard is NOT beige - it's a pale yellow, and shiny. I decided to reupholster the headboard as the return process would have been too much work. This bed absolutely requires a box spring, which I had to purchase specifically for the bed. The screws in the middle of the side frame are very visible and you can very clearly tell that there are 2 pieces of wood screwed together rather than 1 long piece of wood for the entire rail. This makes the bed look cheap if you can't cover it with a duvet.

Overall, the bed is OK if on sale, but if you do not already own a box spring and are looking for a beige headboard, I would look elsewhere.
