I am genuinely impressed by this bed. It took my husband an hour to assemble it with a few times of calling me in just to hold things stable. He’s not a handyman, so I was impressed by how quickly he got it together. The Velcro on the slats is just a genius idea. The slats are sturdy enough, but I certainly wouldn’t recommend standing on them. However, they offer support just fine. The headboard is streamlined an basic, but that’s what I love about it. I like my bedding to shine, not the frame. It’s soft, cozy, and understated while still looking chic and stately. Not a single flaw or missing piece on any of it, and a very timely delivery. This was my first Wayfair purchase, and I’ll definitely be checking back more frequently.
