Very solid and it looks high end. I was so excited to have it put together that I started to lay out the pieces and get it all prepared for my husband to put it together. Since he wasn’t ready to work on it yet I figured I’d give it a go and start the first step for him.  Well, before I knew it I had the crib all put together. Directions were very clear and crib is strong and sturdy. I love it and am so happy with my selection. People who have seen it can’t believe the price I paid and thought it was much more.
