Can you show me what other furniture would be in the room with it?

I love it but my taste is simple.

Its hard to get an idea,with no bedding, but it seems sparse.Good if you are going for a very moder,urban look, but not my style.

Re: Opinions on this bed please....BE HONEST

I'm being completely honest...I LIKE IT! I think it has very simple/classic lines that can pretty much go with anything.

ETS...but, I don't like the bedding they show it with...you need to add your own style to that.

I like it a lot - it's very clean and simple....so it won't take over the room....

It's not my style either, but as soon as I saw it I pictured it made up with Calvin Klein linens- really simple, minimalist, and I bet it would be beautiful in a room.

Not really my taste either; I like simple but this is a little too simple. I'm sure with the right bedding it'd look great, but what I don't like is the metal bars for the headboard. I like to sit up in bed and read or watch tv and having bars poke through my pillows wouldn't be too comfy.

It's a little institutional

Re: Opinions on this bed please....BE HONEST

as pictured, I'm not crazy about it. WIth the right bedding, I think it would look great

I'm all for simplicity, given the right 'touches' it could look amazing

WELL....DH and I need to be committed!

Thank you all for opinions! While yes it is simple and we like simple, we prefer wood, but this is in our price range at C & B. It's just a thought....I was thinking of covering the headboard with some fabric.

There is a Crate & Barrel outlet all of 10 minutes away...I'm hittin' it this weekend!

I agree - make sure to try it out and sit up on it. If you watch a lot of TV or read in bed and can't sit up because of the bars it won't be very comfy.
