This bed was easy to put together and doesn't seem to be squeaky like many metal beds. We are currently using it in our guest room, so it hasn't been slept on very much. I wasn't out shopping for a pink bed but this one fit in my budget and would work with my room decor. However I was a little disappointed that it was even more muted in color than shown on the website. Sometimes it looks like a pale mocha color. If you ARE looking for a pink bed, this probably won't give you the look you're going for.
