I've had this bed for less than 1 month. The look is absolutely beautiful but everything else is wrong with it. For a $500 bed I was expecting the slats to be more sturdy and durable but instead they are made of very thin, cheap wood and attached to one another by cheap plastic caps that come off everytime we shift in the bed. I only weigh 110 lbs and everytime I get on it feels like it's going to break. I've had to take it apart and re-screw/reassemble it twice now so that I can actually sleep on it. I would return it if it wasn't such a hassle. 

Basically - it's beautiful but not worth the money or the hassle. Not sturdy and poor quality.
