I needed a bed to fit into a little alcove, so the measurements left me with few beds to select from. Pictures don't do it justice-- this bed is very nice. The upholstered side of the headboard is so nice-- no gap or weird empty space. All pieces came inside the headboard zipped up-- genius! Will be perfect for a family that moves frequently. Very easy to put together. Listen to the reviews: don't tighten until everything is in place. A first big-girl bed for my toddler who has banged her head on several hard headboards. The fabric will look pink-ish in my photo bc the walls are pink, but it is neutral. Extremely happy
