The bed is really nice  looks great. Had to take away one star cuz it was so difficult to put together! My husband did most of the work himself  it took around 6 hours. After putting it together its really hard to push down, almost feels like it will break...but we followed the directions  put the mattress on the bed while its open to give more weight to push it down  it worked. Overall we love it, but wouldnt want to build it again haha!
