This bed has given us quite a bit of trouble.  The main board on the front connecting the headboard and footboard was broken when we put it together and then we had to replace it.  The replacement part didn't have the slats holder screwed in properly and two of the screws' holes were stripped (which came prescrewed!!!), so my husband had to rescrew the screws.  We wish we could return this bed and purchase a different bed for our daughter.  This bed eems very cheap for being expensive.
