The bed is beautiful, I love the headboard and the frame around it! However, I'm extremely disappointed in the sturdiness and the wood support of this bed. I have to watch how I sit and sleep on this bed. I'm honestly affraid to move at all in this bed or in my sleep becuase I feel my mattress is going to fall through the frame at any given moment due to all the cracking and the crackling of the wood that supports the middle of this bed!
