The bed is good quality, sturdy and looks great, very pleased with it and good value overall. I shopped around a lot. The same for the mattress that we orderd with it, really good quality and very comfortable. The delivery was also good, very well communicated from Get Laid Beds and the courier and the delivery people were nice and helpful. The only slight niggle with the bed is that there are some small gaps where the wood isn't flush where it joins. On the base it doesn't really matter as you can't see it and it's very sturdy so obviously doesn't affect the integrity. On the headboard the gaps show as it's against a pale wall. There are bigger gaps on one side one side so looks a bit off but that noticeable. Maybe it's the rustic look. As I say, I'm really pleased with the bed and the niggles are just that, not the end of the world.
