Very beautiful bed! Very sturdy and solid. The wood is a beautiful color but, the headboard and around one post has a rough texture. not sure if it’s the aesthetic or faulty quality control. Sort of lower than I expected it to be as I have to basically fall into bed. I am 6’2 though. Putting together was pretty straightforward as it included an illustrated  instructions pamphlets but, all the screws and nuts came taped up in a small box with no individual identification.
