Feels sturdy and appears to be larger than a normal king size bed.  Good instructions and all fittings are well labelled. It is tricky to affix the mattress base to the lifting arms, but I think that will always be the case with flat pack ottoman beds.  The one thing we do not like it that the footboard has very pointy corners! Would be borderline dangerous if you had small children. Apart f on that it is a lovely bed.
