I would've given it a solid five stars but the sideboards to the headboard were about an inch narrower than at the footboard. It was an easy fix to take off a little on one of the slats and literally shove the box frame into the bed frame. Other than a little home-engineering recalculation, this bed is FANTASTIC. It's great quality, sturdy and was surprisingly higher off of the floor than the similar, but smaller, white bed we had purchased elsewhere. It's like sitting on a cloud,...and a great source of joy!
