I really do like the look of it, it’s just as it’s pictured and it doesn’t look like cheap, fake wood. Easy assembly, too! I would give it 5 stars, but the slats made me take off a point. Many mattress warranties require the space between the slats of your bed frame be so many inches apart. These were spaced way further apart then what would be covered by many warranties. So although there was no issue with the functionality, I ended up covering the slates with plywood that I had to buy from another store. If mattress warranty is a concern for you, double check the requirements. Otherwise this is 5-star!
