The top part of the bed is beautiful. I was unable to fit the pieces together at first, but my husband is handy and was able to bend the steel just a bit using ratchet straps to make the parts line up. I gave it a low rating because after about 2 weeks of regular use, the castor wheels on the bottom bent. The welds are not strong. Perhaps trundles are for occasional use, but that was not advertised. My children are 3 and 4, so there was not excessive weight on the trundle. The trundle is still usable, but I am waiting for the castors to snap completely. Also, I initially wanted to put the bed in my daughters carpeted room, but there is no way the trundle will roll on the carpet with the castors bent as they are. Poor construction.
