Our bed was sagging a bit with a box springs, so we ditch the box springs and got this platform bed. It’s made a huge improvement in the firmness and comfort of our mattress. My only complaint is that the bed is obviously lower than the picture, however the current description is accurate. (I’m not certain that it was when I bought the item.) Overall we are quite happy with it, I just wish it was a bit higher so our robot vacuum could fit underneath.
