This bed is perfect for us. The height is exactly what I wanted and the trundle rolls in and out easily on our hardwood floors. (We used a 6" mattress by wayfair. The 8" mattress I first ordered was too thick and made moving the trundle difficult.) It has adds a softness to the room that wouldn't have been possible with a wooden or metal piece. We haven't had it long enough to attest to its durability or ease of cleaning, but it so far, it is just as I expected.
