I received my bed late because the first ship was so damaged that Fed Ex returned it to WayFair but WayFair shipped another right away,  apologized for the issue and also issued me a small refund off the total for my trouble. When I finally got it, it was as expected and so easy to assemble my 11 year old son helped me! Its sturdy and doesnt even creak when weight is added. Im happy with my purchase and will buy fro. WayFair again.
