This bed is just as advertised.  It was easy to assemble and all necessary assembly tools were included (hex tool and screws) with the bed.  It is beautiful and very sturdy.  It is for my guest room, so I slept in it to assure that it will be quiet and sturdy. I had a great night's sleep.  It was solid and did not squeak all night.  I am well pleased with my purchase of this bed.
