Unlike others, I purchased this bed for myself (56 yrs young).  I have a small bedroom and wanted a space saver and a comfortable bed.  With the drawers and the side lay of the full mattress, I have so much extra space.  The Merlot color is very classy as well.  I also purchased the 10" Gel Memory Foam mattress and have not slept better in years.  I now know what it is like to sleep all night!  I would recommend this for children, but absolutely for adults!
