We absolutely love this frame and highly recommend it! It is really easy to put together and take down. We wanted a frame for the spare bedroom that allowed for storage under and this gave it. We also like the idea of taking it camping and putting an air mattress on it. You don’t need a box spring but we did since we will be using it mostly for taller friends so it lifted it very high. We also love the easy take down and put up. It took us about 20minutes to put it all together. Super clear and easy instructions too!
