This bed matches my antique bedroom set and is great quality for the price. It was also super easy to put together. We purchased it  because we couldnt fit our queen box spring up our stairs, so opted for a platform bed that didnt necessitate using one. The only setback is that when you dont use a box spring there is a 4-5 inch gap between the headboard and the mattress. You dont see the gap when the bed is made and there are pillows against it, but we cosleep with our 2 year old, and he frequently inches his way up to the top and gets his head caught in the gap in the middle of the night. Its a pretty isolated issue, and my only complaint. Otherwise so happy with it!
