It looks great once assembled, however, after a few months, a few slats cracked so my husband had to reinforce it with additional wood.  We bought a mattress from IKEA and it is a bit small so there are gaps on the sides and at the foot of the bed.  The kids have bumped the corners a few times but at least it doesn't hurt since it is somewhat cushioned.

Pros: Looks great, well upholstered
Cons: Slats thin, Gaps around mattress
