The bed is beautiful and looks exactly as pictured. The headboard, footboard, and side pieces are all durable and sturdy. However, the metal frame that holds up the slats is not sturdy or durable at all. The metal easily bends and breaks making the bed sag to the floor. We replaced the wood slats and metal framing with a piece of plywood board and it works just fine. I wish the metal had held up better, but I still love the look of the bed. If you buy it, plan to come up with another way to reinforce the mattress. Debating if we are going to keep it
Pretty but needs reinforcement work
