very nice bed! I'm very happy with the purchase, doesn't look cheap or flimsy. Seems like great support although I haven't slept on it yet. I don't think you can put a box spring down because the slabs are curved a little. I have a 14' inch memory foam mattress on it and it fits ok . I think a 12 inch mattress  is really the perfect match. Overall nice bed for the price! I'm very pleased with this purchase ! Oh and the bed isn't low it's a pretty good height!
