I love my new bed, the warehouse took a little while longer when it came to delivering the product which btw... it comes in two separate deliveries which is annoying but worth the wait in the end. It took about 2 12 hours to put the bed together by myself, with help you could definitely cut the time in half. The bed is pretty sturdy from my point of view but I can see where others say the bed can be a little rocky. To ensure you have no issues follow the the directions and tighten the screws as tight as possible to make the bed sturdy and if you have woodtile floors a rug will come in handy. It is a beautiful bed and worth giving a try  if interested in more of a glam look!!!Hopefully it holds up!!!
