This bed is exactly what we needed for a vacation rental.  It has the slat support needed for a king size bed.  It is quite sturdy.  As others have noted, it is very low to the ground. We used box springs as well as the mattress and the height works well.  My only minor complaint is two of the feet under the middle support lacked foot pads but a quick trip to the hardware store and $2 later we were all good.
