This bed frame looks really pretty and classic in person; it looks rather high end considering the price actually. It's a great height off of the floor for under bed storage too. My mattress rests comfortably and securely. Some parts of the set up are a bit awkward and could use two people. The directions are a bit scarce but it still didn't take much longer than an hour or so to set up. The bed did squeak a bit at first, but I went back over and tightened some of the screws really well and it was good to go! Overall, I'm happy with it!
