I love the look of the wood, like plank boards.  I just hope it doesnt start peeling over time but we will see.  Its not real wood but very pretty.  It seems solid enough but the bed slats on the frame are skinny and dont look like they would hold a heavy Queen mattress and box spring however all the bedroom sets I have purchased this last year are the same.  I buy 1x6 boards and cut them to size and add them to the frame for better support.  The bed was easy to put together but you have to be very careful of the corners of the frame. They are very sharp and I have hit them accidentally multiple times when walking by and ripped my skin off.  I guess I need to get used to having low foot boards.  As much as I like the look I only gave it 4 stars because it is not a super high quality piece of furniture but worth the price when it was on sale.
