We purchased this bed for my tween daughter. Yes we were originally considering the PB bed, and I was surprised when I came across this one. My daughter loves it and as picky as she can be, we didn't want a huge investment if we were getting rid of it in a couple of years. This is beautiful, gives the appearance my daughter wanted for her "Paris" themed bedroom, and already the younger sister is excited about 'her turn with the bed". This was a great choice - quality, beautiful powder coating, and durable. My husband I put it together in less than an hour and were delighted to see my daughter's reaction. I'm very impressed with the quality and value in this purchase. Not to mention no shipping or surcharges like other sites. Thank you Great Offer Stock for bringing current trends at such affordable prices. Will keep shopping. . .
