Love this bed. It's pretty low to the ground but that's perfect for our aging dogs to get up and snuggle with us. Admittedly, we got this bed so we wouldn't have any way for the cats to get under the bed and they now can't so I'm happy. Also, the simple design and modern look and feel give it a calm and relaxing mood when you walk in the room. The upholstery is very nice looking and soft on the corners so we don't have to worry about bumping into them and getting a bruise when we get up to go the bathroom in the middle of the night. It took about an hour to put together including removing the old bed frame. We are very happy with this bed frame.
