We bought this daybed for our kids room in an apartment we have as a second home. We wanted something that could act as a lounge couch by day (since space is tight in a city apartment), bed by night, and this fit the bill perfectly. The quality is very good. We got 10" mattresses (10" Quilted Memory Foam Mattress from Wayfair worked PERFECTLY), and I wouldn't go any larger than that, especially on the bottom (I don't think it would even push in with a larger mattress). We lined the back of it with cute pillows and the kids hang on there all day. Assembly was pretty easy. Just a screw gun and allen wrench. I am very pleased with this purchase. In fact, my kids asked if they could replace their beds in our primary home with the same bed.
