We wanted to start updating the furniture in our guest bedroom to a more midcentury feel. This just isn't our favorite. The wood tone was more yellowish-orange than we thought it would be and think it will be too hard to find other pieces to match it. There were also some knicks and scratches. However, it is a sturdy bed if you are looking for this wood tone. It also came with clear instructions and spare parts. If you want more of the base to show then size down your comforter. This is a queen and the other side touches the floor almost.
