We love this King sized bed. Very beautiful wood! A 10inch Wayfair mattress is on it right now. The height is perfect, no gap between mattress and headboard. I'm so happy it's not low like other beds on here. We might get a bunkie board to put over the slats just for extra precaution. Took my husband and I about an hour to put together. Box was very heavy so we took pieces out of box and carried them one by one upstairs. Directions were easy and all screws were in a nice organized package. Areas are rough where the rustic cuts in the wood are so just don't expect a smooth surface in those wood cuts if you rub your hand over it. Rug is from Wayfair too, its the Nola geometric rug.
