It is surprisingly difficult to find a low height bed frame that's not a heavy, bulky, solid piece of furniture with a ridiculously high headboard that's under $1000. This bed frame is very light both visually and in weight while still being made of solid wood so it's very sturdy. Its lower than your average bed height but not so low you cannot comfortably sit on the edge or use the space underneath for storage. The price is great for the quality you receive and shipping is fast.
