Magnificent bed that looks better than the picture!  I bought it in white & it's very high quality & elegant looking.  Slats are very sturdy and the whole bed is very well made, including drawers.  I peeled off small label numbering parts & the only other thing I had to do was fill in over screws in back on either side with some ready made Spackle so the slight open holes  exposing the screws would not distract from beauty of bed.   If it ever has to be dis-assembled though, it is easy enough to remove the Spackle & get to the screws.   East Side Assembly in NYC  put it together easily for $110.  I just love this bed & it's very easy to move should you need to clean  behind it or whatever.
