I love this bed. I had an antique sleigh bed for decades and finally got a more modern one. The rich honey color of the wood is a great mid tone so the other pieces in the bedroom work with it. I like sitting on the bottom of the bed to reach into my dresser. The room feels bigger with this style. And I love the pretty wood on the high headboard. I like to sit up an meditate in bed often so this design is perfect for that as well. I am very happy that I bought this for myself.
