Although it is beautiful and appears to be well constructed
I have never left a review on before but I felt the need to make people aware of the false description for this bed. Although it is beautiful and appears to be well constructed, I am very upset with the misinformation of the dimensions. The space available under the bed is only 6.25, not the 7.5 listed in both the diagram and the answered question from the seller. That extra 1.25 may not seem like much but the I specifically picked this bed over others because of the height under the bed to accommodate my storage boxes. Not only will the boxes I have not fit, I cant find any options that will fit in such a short space. I am now left with the option to disassemble the bed, repack it in the box that was all but destroyed trying to open it, and then transport the 100 + pound bed to ship it back, or keep it and forgo the much needed storage I was counting on. Buying furniture online, sight unseen requires a small leap of faith, but we as consumers count on the descriptions and questions to make the most informed decision possible. It would not be a problem to return something small but this is now a fully assembled large piece of furniture and returning it is not a simple task. Not a happy customer.
