Real wood platform bed--Great look for a good price
I was drawn to this product based on the fact it was solid wood, a simple mission-type design, and the price. The Antique espresso color description left me a bit mystified, but other reviewers commented that it wasnt as dark as it sounded. So I took a chance and am happy I did. The bed is a warm medium-to-dark brown, just what I wanted. It arrived very well packaged with all the parts and even extra hardware! My husband said it went together like a jigsaw puzzle--I think that was a positive :) What he means is that all the parts were clearly marked as to what bit attached to what; the instructions were functional, mostly just following the drawing and diagrams step by step. He was impressed with the novel design for placing the slats, they come out perfectly spaced. No snags and it looks beautiful and solid.
