It fit our space perfectly! It is VERY TOUGH to put together, but that was made relatively obvious prior to beginning since it stated it was a tough build on the instructions page. The two drawbacks to be aware of: there is a cut in the piece that sits against the wall to allow for baseboard. If you have thick/tall baseboard, it might not fit. Additionally, most regular mattresses will not fit in this, as it needs to be thinner to be able to fit when it's folded close.
