We were looking for an elevated bed to add some storage space to our home but could not find one that did not have bad reviews about sturdiness or how cheap it was. We are very pleased with our purchase so far with this platform bed. It has provided us with the storage space we need and does not squeak when you climb into it. Fits great in the space and looks good, not cheap. I would recommend this bed to anyone who is lacking storage in their house as there is 12 inches of clearance under it for storage totes.
