Absolutely gorgeous bed! Better than expected especially as it was less than £400 for a super king! The instructions were not very good though and it took about 4 hours to build! Think our mattress is too heavy as it is a struggle to lift the bed to store stuff under it but we can make it work between us. Plenty of space underneath. No base just the floor but we have no probs with that. Speed and communication re delivery were good however not happy with the 2 delivery men as we needed the bed delivered to our bedroom (3rd floor townhouse) and they couldn’t get the headboard up the stairs... however later that day I managed to get the headboard upstairs with my dads help. Anyway, gorgeous bed, sturdy and looks very luxurious. Very happy with it.
