Even with the recommended smaller 5 inch mattress for the trundle, it was not enough clearance to close completely. We do have plush carpeting, so that probably caused the shortage.
We ordered 3" bed risers to fix this problem.
Otherwise, we love this bed for our grandchildren.
We did have to hire someone to assemble it though. It took a professional about an hour and half to assemble it.
(We added the assembly to our order through , but he was a no show)
NOTE if this is to be on carpet area
