The bed is a nice peice of furniture. The box came  later than expected, even with expedited shipping. It also came with no instructions on how to put it together.  It took about 3  12 hours by myself, so if it had come with instructions it may have been a lot faster. The constitution of the frame seem sturdy as its made of metal upholstered over. One of the things I did not care for is that the slats did not come with screws. They have 4 hooks ,2 on each side that you tighten to hold in place at each end, but they arent able to bolt or screw the mid section down. So you lose a bit of stability in the mid section.
