The bed is beautiful! It was fairly simple to put together by myself, as well. My only problem, which is not the bed’s or manufacturer’s fault, is that I have a box spring and 14-inch mattress. Due to this, I can barely see the headboard. I could probably remove the box spring if I wanted to, but I enjoy having the bed sit-up high. I’m not able to fully enjoy the beauty of the headboard, unfortunately, but that is my choice since I want to use both my box spring and 14-inch mattress. Otherwise, the bed is wonderful. It is quiet and beautiful.
