The frame is super nice and sturdy which is exact what we were looking for. The assembly was easy and straightforward. I will say that with this being a 10 inch platform bed, it has been super challenging finding suitable brackets that work with this size frame and attaching to a headboard. I have found several options readily available for the other sizes but 10inch. We did really like the tape that came with to keep the mattress in place. Overall we are very happy with it and look forward to squeak free years to come.
