Five stars because we love our new bed; no squeaking and it feels pretty solid! That being said, I put it together by myself and it took a few solid hours of work (and I'm pretty handy). One of the holes didn't line up, so I had to drill a new hole in order to attach the headboard wing. Also, one of the extra supports in the middle falls out all of the time. I finally stopped reattaching it and am hoping the bed doesn't fall apart, haha. All in all, it's a good bed but if you're not willing to really sweat for a few hours, I wouldn't invest.
