I ordered 2 of the twin beds in black for my daughters. They were a fraction of the price of other,  similarly styled beds. I was a little concerned based on other reviews about the base being too big for the mattress and seeing unsightly slats along the edges. I am happy that I chose to order anyhow. The beds are very sturdy. You can see a very small amount of the slats around the edges with your a standard size mattress but after the sheets and blankets are on, you don't see that at all. The finish looks great... a nice, matte black. The material does feel a little bit plastic, but still looks very nice. For a kids bed, I would absolutely purchase again.
