This is a beautiful bed.  It's sturdy.  The color is perfect, which means it is a bit darker than shown on the website (oak finish).  The drawers could be a little sturdier, but I'm not really planning on putting anything heavy in them.  When installing the drawers it was necessary to file down the plastic guides a bit in order to clear the inside notches on the metal track.  But all in all, it was a great buy - we love it!
