This bed is elegant and the drawers are roomier than any other I shopped for. I added 5 more slats myself just for better comfort and support as we don’t wish to have the box springs on it (sits to high) I suggest that with a pillow top mattress that you consider ordering a low profile box spring too.The directions are easy to understand if you are familiar with diagrams but I think a worded explanation would be a great idea to help people out. But all in all this is a wonderful bed I love it and so does my wife.
