Bought because I have a colonial house and my box spring would go around the tight corners. Love this bed doesn't need a box spring and us very stylish for the price. I would have given it 5 stars except the metal slats were a little bent at the ends. I had to use a hammer to flatten them a but so the would assemble correctly. I also have a few extra bolts, ect. No biggie. Took only about 30 mins to put together. It holds up to 500 pounds. It's not super sturdy, but it suits it's purpose. My bed looks and feels great. I would buy it again.
