This daybed is beautiful and looks great in my sitting room. Only complaint is that the slats are about 4 inches apart and the recommended mattresses require slats that are 3 or less inches apart. This is a design flaw that should be easy to fix to make this daybed much better. I had to purchase a $30 slat reinforcement board system. I hope this solves the problem, but these are smaller than the full twin size, so it is a bit concerning. I would still purchase this daybed. I just wish that they had included more thoughtfully placed slats.
