Exactly as pictured. This is a platform bed type frame so no boxspring or base is necessary. My daughter chose this for her room and Wayfair delivered and the delivery team set the frame up. We don’t have the mattress yet and haven’t decided where in the room this will actually go, but first impressions are this is a nice frame for the price. The material is soft and it should go with any decor. You’ll see that you will want a lower profile mattress for this frame in the photo I’m attaching to my review.
