I actually downsized from a King to a Queen bed and couldn't be happier with my purchase. The bed frame is solid and the color (caramel) is just lovely. The assembly of the bed requires two people. I'm happy to say me and my boyfriend are still together after this process. It's not easy, however, not difficult. We felt like we were on The Amazing Race and had to put together an unknown object. We definitely won with this bed!
