I like the bed overall. It’s nice that it is made out of real wood and has a simple but classic design. The color in the photo is the same color of the bed in person. I don’t necessarily like that you can see the black hardware but I can live with it. What I hate is that the trundle wheels don’t lock and that even an 8 inch mattress is too big to pull out when the trundle is under the bed. They should really change that in the description because I bought an 8 inch mattress assuming it would fit since they say you get up to 8.5 inches.I do not like the look of bed risers so that is not a solution for me.
