The is extremely heavy and was easy to put together. My biggest issue is that it doesnt look like the picture, the design is accurate but the wood doesnt look like the virgin wood in the picture. It does seem like good quality but the wood looks like manufactured wood or wood that has a ton shallacking it just looks like a bed for a man cave. Im not saying its not a nice  its just is not what I wanted. Considering its too big to move, take down or ship I just decided to keep it. But Im unhappy with the headboard especially and the two metal feet at the foot bed which I think would of been nicer if it was in the same wood as the bed.
