I purchased this bed frame for my 16 year old son and he really likes it. It is very versatile in it's design (traditional, transitional, contemporary) so it can be used with any type of decor. The delivery was faster than estimated, there was no damage to the cartoning and there were no  missing pieces/parts.  The assembly was a bit trying & took longer than expected  (and my husband is very mechanically inclined) but I wouldn't let that deter me from recommending the purchase.  I've read others' reviews prior to purchasing it myself and saw comments about the  amount of space between the platform bars and the  attached headboard. It is a little much but nothing an additional standard pillow couldn't remedy.  Once assembled, the bed looks fabulous. I don't believe you'd be disappointed with the purchase.
