Very good quality for the money! The wood appears to be solid; pine or some other fast-grown white wood. The finish is decent and the bed looks great in our guest bedroom. I would definitely buy again.

The instructions are maybe the best I've ever seen. Very easy to assemble. I liked the clever Velcro strips for the slats. The provided Allen ratchet is great! Be careful not to over-tighten; I had one fastener strip.
