Let me start by saying I was very nervous purchasing a bed from an online retailer. Wow, I'm very glad I bit the bullet and purchased this bed! Great quality and way more sturdy than any bed I've purchased from IKEA. The fabric is very rich and goes well in any setting (mine is an industrial loft-type). Shipping was amazing. Purchased at 6 p.m. on a Wednesday and it arrived at my apartment by 1 p.m. Friday.
