Beautiful bed, really appreciate that the entire frame is made of high quality solid wood, which makes this frame overall a great price point for what you get. It took me about 1.5 hours to put together a king size - I was able to do it solo, but it took some extra elbow grease. Sturdy so far, but I've only had it for a few days. Overall 4/5, will update if anything changes and possibly bump up to a 5/5 if it holds up well and doesn't deteriorate.
