Just bought this bed and I really like it so far! It is quite sturdy and well-made- and the tufted headboard looks so classy. :-) It arrived WAY earlier than the projected delivery date I was initially sent, and it was quite easy to put together-- I did it myself in less than an hour.  There IS quite a strong chemical/urethane smell to it directly out of the box so be warned if you are sensitive to things like that. I did let it just air out for a full 24 hrs in a room with a fan after putting it together and the smell DID go away. So no complaints here, I like it a lot!
