Love this bed for my first apartment! The et up was definitely a 2 person-er but could be accomplished with one person if determined. The texture of the frame is a comfortable luxurious feel the perfect shade of gray for my room concept. Would purchase from this brand again! I have a 10 in Zinus mattress on top with no box spring of course and it feels like I’m sleeping on a cloud! Slats are nice and secure with this design!
