Very upset. Bought this bed and a week later the thing broke. I bought two other types of beds and they are fine. Asked to have the broken parts shipped to me to fix it, and a month later I  still do not have the parts and no one will respond to my emails. Very upset that I sleep on a broken bed every night: thinking maybe tomorrow I will get the parts promised to me a month ago. 

 I am not a big person so weight had nothing to do with it breaking. Very sad it is a beautiful bed.

Plus before it broke the head of the mattress falls below the headboard. So you wake up with your head lower.
