You get what you pay for, this bed was one of the cheapest king sizes I could get while still being made of wood. Solid enough so far but I don't imagine it'll last a few decades of abuse. One of the feet was actually detached from the cross bar, but I just shoved it back together (it's glued and doweled, the glue has parted but the dowel was there). Also some glue marks here and there. The colour is better in real life but with the glue marks I'm tempted to paint mine.
