I was hoping for more but I guess for the price I shouldn't have been. I won't say it's not sturdy, but it's very minimal and the cushion looks very cheap. I'm keeping it as I purchased 2 because I need to be able to put them together and make into a King using a bed bridge and these are exactly the width of the mattress so they meet up exactly when put together. Otherwise I wouldn't recommend unless for a young child or college kid.
