Absolutely love my bed. I always wanted a canopy bed, but I either didn’t like what I saw or what I wanted was so expensive. I moved into my first apartment, and for 3 years, I was without a bed-frame until I saw this bed which was 72% off. I had to buy it. Looks just like the photo, the metal shine looks great. A friend put it together for me in a little under 2hrs. I am totally pleased with my purchase.
