The headboard, footboard and side rails are very durable and just what I wanted but unfortunately the metal slats that the  mattress lays on are very hollow and bendable so my kids mattresses are sinking in. If you put a Bunkie board on it then the  mattress slides around and it I’m always adjusting it. It’s very disappointing. I would not buy them again If the manufacturer made the slats stronger the bed would be perfect . You could always skip using the metal slats and make your own wood slats from the hardware store. Don’t bother trying to use the IKEA slats   they are not wide enough .
