This bed came in super fast which I was thrilled to get started. I read the reviews and was determined to put it together with no problems. Well, that did not happen. Overall, its fine but nothing is labeled and the directions were not very thorough. The great thing is that they provide a number to call and they were very nice and helpful.  I think the frame is very sturdy. I have a heavy king tempurpedic and it seems fine. I feel like the headboard moves a little more than I would like but that could be my skills in putting the bed together which I did by myself.  The fabric is soft. I purchased buckwheat and its pretty light. more like a cream or ivory. I am very happy with this purchase and my new bedroom.
