This queen size bed is beautiful.  It came very well packed, with tons of plastic and foam.  We opened it on the front porch and carried each piece upstairs to put it together, because it was so heavy - and so it wouldn't get scratched in the process.  (It was delivered 3 days earlier than expected, right to the front door by FedEx.)  It went together quite easily using our own tools.  We bought a deep pillow top mattress and box springs set that looks perfect on it.  The frame isn't high off the floor, but we don't store anything under our beds.  There is ample room for our robot to clean under the bed, so we're very satisfied.
