This bed is extremely sturdy. Between the two of us and our two dogs we have about 500 pounds on our bed each night. This bed frame does NOT move when we turn at night. There are no squeaks and no wobbles. Also! This bed was simple to put together. I did it by myself. There is two tape strips on the wooden slats what keep the mattress in place- so far we have not had any sliding of the mattress. The wooden slats are connected together and held to the frame with Velcro! We loved that. Way easier to place compared to other ones that need screwed in. Over all we LOVE this bed!! We would buy it again- but we won’t need to because this bed frame is built to last!
