I absolutely love it. I haven't had a bed frame in over 15 years because I hate hitting my toes and shins. But when I moved and my sister took a year to even think about bringing me my box spring, I decided to search for a frame. After sleeping on it, I've been sleeping better than ever. It's easy to install. Doable with just one person, but easier to install with two people. The velvet-like texture is extremely soft and I love it, but I have to consider long term wear and tear. It holds a combined weight of 450 pounds well and barely makes a squeaky sound. Even though I am expected to move out within a few months, the pieces are easy to uninstall and easy to move to another location when the time comes! I absolutely adore my bed!
