This bed was delivered to me this past Wednesday. Overall, I love it. I am using it with a memory foam mattes (12"), and I love the low-profile. It arrived in 3 boxes and was easy to put together. I recommend having someone help you. Make sure the side rails are facing the right direction (arrow stickers facing up) so the support that runs under the bed will fit properly. The bed is a gorgeous cherry stain - a perfect blend of red and brown. My only issues with the bed are: 1. there is a small area on one of the side rails that did not get stained, but did get varnished over, so staining/touching up that area will be impossible. I had that side rail face the wall, so it won't be noticeable. 2. the center support may not be enough to properly support a memory foam mattress. I was lucky and had a center support from the bed I was replacing, so I used that and doubled up. You can easily make extra supports out of a few pieces of lumber, a hand saw and some wood screws if needed. 3. The pilot holes for the cross-slats don't line up. A power screw driver will do the trick on this when installing the cross slats. Minus these flaws, I would definitely recommend this bed. It's really gorgeous."..." Read more
