I have been using this king bed for 4 years now and moved twice. Its easy to assemble and a great bed for looks and comfort. The material is intact, no cracks or chips so far and still looks polished like it did on day one (with regular dusting and occasional wipe with a damp cloth ofcourse). All the edges are rounded which makes it safe around kids as well. One of my best purchases on wayfair and would recommend to anyone looking forward to buying it.
