The bed is sturdy and good quality overall. However, one side piece arrived with the metal piece attached upside down, so we had to remove it and reattach it right side up, which was a pain. Also, the vertical support posts in the middle of the bed are raw wood, not stained. This looks cheap and makes them stand out because they don't match the bed.

Pros: Pretty easy to assemble, except that a piece was put together wrong when it arrived
Cons: The vertical supporting pieces are raw wood, not stained, and make the bed look cheap
