I'll admit I was skeptical at first, but this bed has been extremely sturdy and feels pretty well made. Assembly was a breeze with two people, and even with one wasn't too hard, just required a bit of balancing. The drawers are surprisingly solid and move very easily, the absolute only issue I have at all is that there's a good bit of extra space on the sides of the mattress, though I am still using a box spring for height so that may have something to do with it. Overall great product.
