I purchased this bed a week plus ago now but I've  not been able to install.it; however I did open the package and it looks beautiful, sturdy and it seems to be a great purchased. Thus,  I am satisfied because this is what I've been looking for: -a beautiful,  sturdy, but reasonable price bed for months now. Even though i don"t know  its durability,  I highly recommend it  for its beauty and sturdiness.
