Fairly easy to setup (do yourself a favor and get a cordless drill with the correct hex bit). Very sturdy with no wobble or squeaks. The wood grain scheme is attractive on both styles. The platform height is great to sneak some totes under. The frame corners are rounded enough to not be a hazard (even without the included protective stick-ons). The footboard does not extend up past the mattress, so there’s no risk of hitting it with your feet at night.￼..although the side support leg might sneak out and grab a toe if you’re not paying attention.
