Overall we’re happy with the product for the price we paid. There were some small blemishes in the finish on almost every piece, but they are pretty minor. We had it put together in about 3 hours. It is sturdy and my kids love it. The slats where the mattress go are unpainted and they were spaced wide enough that the 6-inch memory foam mattresses we ordered for the bed poked through the slats, so my husband cut plywood for the mattress to sit on and it helped with the support a bit.
