Beautiful!  I opted to eliminate the slats and used my bed frame (minus the legs), and the box spring & mattress.....inside the daybed frame.  This way, the tufted sides aren't hidden by the mattress.  This daybed is very elegant & tailored. It does have a large footprint!  Very glad I made this purchase (after deliberating for months!)....it finishes the room.  Wayfair is, as always, fabulous.  I've been a customer for 10 years and highly recommend them!
