The bed looks pretty. But the boards are really thin. There are 4 supporting beams underneath, for a king size bed with a heavy mattress, it's not supporting. We have a foam mattress, the edges are all sinking because the beams are not enough. If you really like this bed, but additional slates or big wide board will do the job as well. Also, the headboard will hit the wall because they are very thin, you will need extra cushion inbetween the head board and wall.
