Bed arrived in good condition despite the box being beaten up probably by FedEx. It was so easy to put together! This is not a bad price for the quality of this bed! Highly recommend going with this one! I love the Velcro for the platform wood. The wood planks also have tape so the mattress won’t slide. We arent using the tape yet and the mattress is not sliding, thankfully. We got the king and we are satisfied!
