Beautiful bed and relatively easy to put together. The problem is that it's a bit squeaky (not a huge deal for me), but mostly that the slats are so far apart. It's caused the worst sleep I've ever had. I've spent days trying to recover because my back hurts so bad. I'd want to return this, but because it's so cumbersome, I'll likely just buy additional wood beams to supplement the current slats. The slats are 4.5" apart and bowed upward (which makes the mattress sink even more for pressure points). Pretty design, poor execution.
