We bought this for my two year old daughter as a big girl bed. It isn't as solid as I would expect and the headboard doesn't sit firmly on the poles (there's no drilled holes for it). Despite what it says, you DO need a box spring. There's no way around that. The slat kit has not support whatsoever.

Also, the description is vague and misleading for vintage white. 




Cons: Vintage White means brown brush strokes throughout the bed frame. Box spring needed. Not sturdy enough.
