I was so surprised when I received the bed frame, it was very nice. I was a but apprehensive about ordering a bed frame online, but I would recommend it. There was an initial smell when I opened up the packaging (that made in China factory type of smell), but I let it air out on the balcony (condo)  and once I put the frame together the smell was gone. 
Assembly of the bed was quite straight forward and I was about to put it together myself with minimal help from my husband.
