We removed the slats from the traditional bed that squeaked liked mad and dropped this in. It is sturdy and quiet. We couldn't be happier with it. Easy to put together had one hitch- took a bit of pressure to get a leg brace to latch but after two of us leaned in on it it worked.

Pros: great price, easy assembly, sturdy, quiet
Cons: If the bed is not in a frame it will slide around.
