Ive been using the bed for a month and am very satisfied with my purchase.
The drawers were the hardest thing to put together, and they did not end up being flush with the side of the bed when fully closed. But they slide easily and catch well at the end.
The bed holds a mattress by way of two boards placed over one cross-beam. It works well and provides support, but the boards have begun to creak slightly after a month of use.
It also is a little narrow. I have a memory foam mattress, and I frequently have to push the sides of the mattress in to get it to fit in the outline of the bed. This is only an aesthetic problem, though; it doesnt affect comfort at all.
Other than that, the bed is very sturdy when constructed (which I was able to do by myself), and I have no serious complaints.
Overall an excellent purchase for the price
