I am extremely happy with this bed! I have a very small space (612 sq ft) to share with my daughter, and this made it feel so much bigger! I did go with the contractor recommendation, and he has been wonderful! VERY PROFESSIONAL! I was a little hesitant at first because he was not rated yet, but happy happy happy. I did have issues with the bed becoming a little heavy as I opened it, called the company and they are sending another pair of pistons for free! The contractor offered to install for free as well. The woman on the phone was a delight as well. THANK YOU!!!!

I plan to work on the rest of the room now... making a book shelf around the bed. :)
