The bed is very pretty.  I needed a bed that was good for a single mattress.  This one works well.  Has a slat support system so it is good.  The bed is lower to the ground than most but that is true to form for a platform bed.  Seems sturdy.  It hasn't been slept in yet.  I hope is stands up to use.  I bought in white, love the white.  It's for adult daughters bedroom.  Was hoping it was not too young of a style.  It's a very versatile style.
