After two weeks of deliberating between so many wood beds, this one was the one we chose for our guest room. Our main hesitations were color and quality.
We were worried the wood would be too dark, and it was difficult to tell true color by other peoples pictures. It is, in fact, darker than pictured but still very attractive.
For color reference: The side tables are from Target, (Corinna Angle Leg Side Table) and are a little lighter but close enough. The quilt is bright white, and there is a bit of ivory in the grey throw blanket.
As far as quality goes, it absolutely exceeded expectations. Its just pine, but still heavy and very sturdily made. No squeaks or wobbles. All pieces, including slats, seem solid. Wasnt difficult to put together and all parts including spares were included.
Another reason we chose this over similar platform beds was the headboard height. Many platform beds have such a low headboard that after you put pillows on, you cant even see it. While this one isnt tall by any means, it is taller than most similar styles.
All in all, for 245, its definitely worth 5 stars. Easy set up.
