I initially wanted to keep the box spring but u couldnt even see the backboard. I was afraid my husbands back would hurt with a new frame without it but miraculously he has not complained. So it works great without the box spring. Even without it though the headboard is just not tall enough for me. Im going to end up getting a painting to compensate. Additionally I wish the frame was a little higher off the floor for taller storage boxes but I will see about buying those lifters for legs. Overall we had a small hick up screwing in the frame to the wrong side of the headboard so just make sure u look for the holes that need to face the right way. Otherwise, Im really happy with this purchase. The light color brightens my room which I know want to paint another color!
Love it but wish the headboard was taller
