I spent some time looking online for the bed frame look that I wanted within my budget. I loved the look of this bed frame both on the website and then in person (the picture I attached our bed is a little messy). It is really chic and looks like it costs way more than the price. It is pretty sturdy and my husband was able to put it together himself (I helped 1-2x) in about 2.5 hours. We are happy with our purchase.
