We read all the reviews very carefully before purchasing, and the biggest concern was the support for our bed. So we got the Solid Wood Bed Support Slats / Fabric/Covered, also on , to go with this, and its been working out for us just fine within the last month. The instructions are easy to follow. Highly, highly recommend you assemble this with a power drill. Saves a lot of time and headache! Even where the instructions call for a screw driver, just use a power drill, because it will also make the assembly more sturdy and less probable for things to fall apart. (One of the support slats for the side rail fell off this morning, because we had originally used a screw driver for that piece, but we just took the power drill to place it back on, and its tighter and sturdier.) The headboard, the color (beige) and overall design are very nice, and the storage drawers are able to contain so much. We put winter clothing in there, extra bedding and sheets, etc. Plenty of room. Our bedroom floor is carpeted, so the wheels glide over easily. Our mattress is a thick, premium one that did not require a box spring. Great value, and we are glad we got this. Hoping to have this for as long as possible. Someone else in their review mentioned its not meant for great sex. Weve been having great sex on this, and I believe the key is in making sure you reinforce the support slats and choose the RIGHT mattress for you that does not require a box spring. Overpriced a bit.
So far so good
