This bed has more supports for underneath it than I would've guessed. There are plenty of metal slats for supporting the box spring and mattress and it's made even better than I could've hoped. This thing will hold up very well and I couldn't be more happy with my purchase. My daughter LOVES it. It looks very classy and with a string of lights above it, absolutely perfect for a teenage girl. Even better than the picture. So glad I found this website, it was our first purchase here and I will definitely not hesitate to buy from Wayfair again. Extremely pleased with my purchase and the quick shipping and great price. 5 stars. Thank you!!
