The bed is cute and my daughter loves it but there are a few things I don’t like about it.  First, they call it a platform bed.  There are only four small beams to support your mattress, so you have to have a foundation of some sort.  Next, the mattress will be VERY low to the floor unless you have a pretty thick foundation.  We opted for a 9inch foundation (box spring).  Then, the footboard is lower than the top of the mattress, which isn’t the end of the world (see picture).  It was pretty easy to set up, other than the screw count/size being off.
