Definitely solid. Put together in just over 2hrs. 100 pieces in box and all the hardware too. Was a bit more “yellow” in the sheen on the wood than I anticipated but it’s not too bad and not the worst thing ever (received the natural color) Used the hex wrenches provided and a drill for the few screws. We both were impressed with how well everything lined up. The only thing we had to adjust was some of the places the screws went didn’t have pilot holes drilled but not a deal breaker by any means. The most difficult thing we had putting together was the placement of the guard rail edge -user error all the way. Pieces were all numbered and the instructions with numbers and pics were definitely sufficient. Couldn’t be more pleased.
