This is exactly what I was looking for because it has a cushioned headboard and it is decently low, and I just bought a firm 10-inch Serta mattress and it fits perfectly and it also fits with my sheet and comforter set. Definitely, recommend this and just one downside is that it had a little bit of damage on the corner of the footboard. The best part is that it is so easy to assemble compared to IKEA because you only need 8 screws, and when 3 people worked on it, we finished it in about 20 minutes!!! It also only took 3 days to ship.
