It is no wonder this bed is often out of stock.  It is so sturdy, especially when you add the two additional center support legs, sold directly from the manufacturer.  Assembly is easy and fun; it's a life-size wooden puzzle.  It's not impossible to put together by oneself, but an assistant on call to help with attaching the rails is important.  I'm no expert, but my advice regarding slat placement, is to place the darker slats (felt denser) in the middle, where the most weight usually rests. 

It arrived early, extremely well packaged, and no need to take a photo because it really does look exactly like the pic!

We bought 3!!!  I price checked for months, and Wayfair always had the best price.
