This bed is not as sturdy as I expected from reviews. It feels like the wood slats are going to break if you aren't careful or if you move around too much. The pros are that the directions for installation are clear and easy to understand and the bed was put together quickly with two people. I also like the fact that you can choose two different heights for the bed. I chose the lowest size. Other than that, this bed isn't what I hoped it would be.
