Our daybed and trundle was perfect for my office. We have a lot of company and this is perfect for kids and adults. We love the stylish look and I was able to put it together by myself without my husband's help. As some have already mentioned, make sure to get a mattress at least 12" thick, otherwise you can see the wall between the gap. We also bought some accent pillows to make it more comfortable. If you have children or small pets, you may want to get an ottoman. With a 12" mattress and the height of the daybed, it's kind of hard getting onto the mattress.
