It works for the price. Slat construction seems pretty sturdy. Color is true to picture.      the headboard is not solid. All the bed parts are in a zipped compartment in the back of the headboard. The side rails are made up of two panels. My assembler used a drill with a hex bit to assemble. He had to lossen the bolts when joining the frame together because the weren't lining up. One of the frame side panels was damaged in transit. The bed was packaged well but the box was damaged. Recommend
