The Moshier Platform Bed is a very basic setup. It does stand alone and have four drawers under the bed. The drawers have no rails and are completely detached from the frame. It is very easy to assemble and comes with instructions. The fabric is textured and seems to be high quality. No boxspring is required as your mattress (purchased separately) sits directly on the slats. This is a great starter bed but don’t get wild and crazy or you’ll end up in the floor!!
