The bed looks great, but the smell and assembly is another story. The bed (especially the headboard) smells so toxic that after assembling it, it made me so sick that I had to go sleep somewhere else because my entire house reeked of formaldehyde. I had to take the headboard off at put it outside. I brought it back in after two days hoping the smell had faded but nope, it’s still awful. It took forever to assemble because none of the screw holes lined up on the support beam, there is no way to get the screws in that hold the slats in place withought a power tool (which the directions specifically say NOT to use power tools). The color is also not quite as dark as I thought it would be. Yes, it looks pretty and feels somewhat sturdy, but lots of cons.
