My experience with this bed started rocky but it ended great. First, when I received the bed, the box was in pretty good shape; however the styrofoam on the inside made it look like a bomb had gone off in there. Needless to say it got everywhere when removing the bed pieces and I think the styrofoam clean-up took longer than actually building the bed. Secondly, the headboard was damaged with a significant crack right in the front (see first pic). Of course, it had to be on the most visible part of the bed. Third, attached the side rails was a battle. They come in two pieces each and attach in the middle at the support leg. Well there was definitely a design flaw with this because you have to line up two metal threaded holes, which cannot be off by more than 1/64 of an inch or they won’t attach well. In addition, once the bolt goes in, you can’t unscrew it back out because it literally takes the threaded metal piece out of the wood with it. Eventually I got it to work, though it looked slightly misaligned. I was willing to live with that, but not the cracked headboard so I opened a request with Wayfair to have that replaced. So this all sounds bad so far but here’s where everything turned around. For one, even though I only asked for a replacement headboard, they sent me a whole new bed! At first I thought, what a waste... BUT after receiving the second bed, I knew that the first one was a bad apple. For one, this bed box came within another box for shipping, which gave it a lot of extra padding. Needless to say, there was zero damage to any part of the new bed. I was only going to use the replacement headboard until I saw the side rails and noticed that it had a slightly different design... no more threaded metal holes for the bolts. I assembled the new side rails and it was sooo much easier and everything aligned perfectly! I’m thinking the first bed was an older version and the manufacturer realized the design flaw. The second two pics are the new version of the bed, which was flawless and made up for the initial bad experience. I love the bed; it’s very stable and two weeks in with no wood creaking or other issues. The bed is close to the online photos - I would say a shade darker in person. I bought contrasting gray nightstands and it looks great.

The bed is not resistant at all in the middle, I would like to returned

Great bed , simple to assemble

Looks nice but looks cheap from the back you can see all the staples.

I thought it was beautiful but sadly I couldnt finish assembling it because they gave me 4 side pieces all the same orientation
