I don’t know if I screwed up or what, but the box spring that I bought (the one suggested for this bed) doesn’t fit the bed correctly; I don’t know if I was sent an XL twin instead of a normal twin, but the box spring and mattress both are smaller so we will have to do some adjustments to keep the box spring/mattress in place. Other than that, the bed is really well built and going to be perfect for our little boy.
