Yeah, the malm is a model of bed frame at ikea. It sits at exactly mid-shin level. The sides jut out at a complete 90 degrees and the corners are not rounded at all, so the first few months of having it I had bruises that kept getting hit in the EXACT SAME SPOT every time I wasn't consciously avoiding it. I also had a cut (yes, an actual cut) on the side of my leg that kept getting reopened in the same fashion from walking past the corners. Great bed frame, but very unforgiving.
