Nice bed, not as strong as I had hoped.  Biggest cons would be that a) we could not use the box spring, as it made the mattress so high that it covered the head and foot rail designs, and b) you cannot use a regular bed skirt, not even one that has corner slits. Wish they had noted these things so I would've just bought a single mattress & saved money, and I would've waited to buy a bed skirt online.
