While the bed is beautiful solid wood, and a beautiful finish, there were definitely some flubs when putting it together. We had to forgo using the washers with the bolts when installing the support beams or else the bolt was too short to actually connect the beam to the bed. And idk how we missed this, but unfortunately too far out from the defects window we came across a screw sticking out from one of the side rails. We found out because my husband gashed his leg while making our bed. Thinking we messed up and screwed it in too tight, we immediately took everything apart to retract it, only to realize the side rails came already full assembled and we only used bolts in he assembly of the bed, not screws, so this was a manufacturing flub. I can’t imagine if I had children or animals in the house and they were injured because of this. 

It’s a beautiful bed but it is a bit of buyer beware. You may get a gem or a lemon. Also the nightstands were both defective as well.
