The bed is ok....the main thing that lets it down is the way in which the bed slats are done. Every bed that have had, the bed slats have sat lower than the frame and secure and sit on a ledge going around. The slats on this bed sit on top of the frame so when you place you mattress etc on them you can see the slats under the mattress from the side. I have never seen this on a bed and I really do not like it.
