You should only buy this if you are planning on using a regular steel bed frame to support the mattress.  The wooden frame rails are 1x1s, there are only 4 slats and they are  1x4s.  The upholstered headboard is nice. the fabric is quality and has good texture.  But unless you are not a full grown adult, the bed is decorative only. Certainly not worth the list price. I would have returned it had I not gotten it on deep discount, and even then, I considered returning it on principle.
