Extremely disappointed.  The predrilled holes do not line up, which made it impossible to put together out of the box.  We drilled new holes and got everything to line up properly then discovered they did some trickery in the photos.  If you have a mattress and box spring, this isn't tall enough!  It's only tall enough if you only have a mattress.  We had to add about a foot of additional wood to the bottom so it would be tall enough and there is nothing special (pillow top or tall) about the mattress or box spring in question.
