We are very pleased with this bed purchase! It’s very sturdy, no squeaks or creaks. This is our first platform bed and I was concerned without a boxspring the bed wouldn’t sit high enough just resting on the slats but it’s at a great height and we’re actually having much better sleeps without the boxspring, should’ve switched to platform a long time ago! I love the wood design on the headboard, we have blue walls and the wood adds a nice warmth to the room.
