Let me begin by saying that I've been waiting for this bed to be back in stock for nearly 4 months now.. And now that I have been notified of the restocked item, I couldn't be happier to have waited such a long time! The bed is just beautiful and elegant as can be! It took me less than 2 hours to put it together (which I did myself :), and I'm so pleased with the finished product. If you are looking for something simple, but timeless, this is the piece. It has a very dreamy element of appeal, maybe because I have decided to decorate around it in such a way, but it is nonetheless, a great bed! Very happy with my purchase!
