The bed frame is sturdy and so far doesn’t creak. It looks like the photo but part of the seem wasn’t glued correctly (glued not sewn) so it’s a bit off. The drawers are smooth and roll out easily. For the price, it’s a good deal. I don’t expect it to last several years but for less than $400 I wasn’t thinking it would be a long lasting piece of furniture. I would recommend if you’re not looking for a stand out piece for the bedroom; although, I would not recommend if you are expecting to put a lot of weight on the frame. I’m using it for an adult female but I’m not sure it can hold more than that on a regular basis.
