definitely the center of attention! I've been eye balling this piece for over a year. I was gonna purchase it but it was back ordered due to popularity most likely. This piece would make any modern bedroom look expensive! For the price you, it's almost a steal. It does take some time to put it together as the screws can be tricky to get into the holes, but once you get the hang of it you breeze right thru. My husband and I got it done in about an hour, we were behind pleased! This bed is well made and should last a life time.
