I really like the look of this bed. So far it's been sturdy and relatively quiet, except for when you first get on the bed. There's a slight squeak when that happens which is a bit alarming. I just hope it doesn't one day collapse. I will say the paint job isn't the neatest, mine has little parts that aren't the prettiest. The wood is also chipped in one part. Still, it does its job and hasn't collapsed yet like I've seeing on some other bed frame reviews.
