I wanted something minimalist and this was perfect! Super easy to put together by myself. Lightweight and picture directions, but you need to assemble it in the room it will be in. It's low to the ground, so you're not going to be able to store bulky items under it. I love that the slats are connected so I didn't have to worry about spacing them evenly. Do not buy this for children who like to jump on the bed; it won't hold up. I'm 5'8" and the size is just right; my feet don't hang off and I don't have to sleep with my head against the wall.
