IT IS BEAUTIFUL. CAN BE EASILY PUT TOGETHER BUT WILL BE VERY FRUSTRATING, MUST FOLLOW DIRECTIONS TO A SCIENCE. I WILL BE USING ABOUT A 3- 4 IN THICK BOX SPRING TO LIFT MY MATTRESS A BIT MORE, AND TO NOT FEEL SO LOW. A REGULAR BOX SPRING TOOK AWAY FROM THE DESIGN OF THE BED. OVERALL IT LOOKS ELEGANT, SUTTLE AND MODERN ALL AT THE SAME TIME.
