This is a great bed made of solid, quality wood. I was really impressed at how sturdy it is for $600. The design either you love or you don't, and I like simple, functional furniture, so for me it rocks. If you prefer something more ornate, obviously you can tell from the picture that this isn't it.
The double decker headboard is great extra shelving for my small room, and surprisingly it doesn't take up such a big footprint, even as a Queen bed: the legs fit right under the mattress. I never bump my knees on the corners, like I did on my other bed.
Some other comments on here (that it was an "in between" colored wood, neither light nor dark, and therefore hard to match with other pieces) scared me, but it actually goes great with my espresso nightstand and chest. There's enough mixture in the wood that it blends well. Plus, hello, not everything should be dark brown. It's boring.
Also, assembly was an absolute breeze. The headboard comes all in one piece, so it took me a half hour to assemble all by myself (even though they recommend two people), about as long as it took me to dump out and locate all the pieces to my DIY nightstand. Literally.
