The bed was pretty easy to assemble just slightly time consuming. As far as sturdiness goes it is extremely solid but does make some noise occasionally. Nothing that would wake the neighbors or be obnoxious. I love the look and the height is perfect. Tons of space under the bed to store containers or anything you need. The only issue I have it the metal support right smack dab in the center of the bed on each side.. it is flush with the frame instead of being a few inches towards the inside which has caused my toes a ton of pain. Every time I walk past the bed without my shoes on I smack my toes on that support bar. You have to constantly remind yourself its there. My mattress slides just a little to one side but Ive yet to end up in the floor so its really nothing to be concerned about. Overall I definitely recommend this frame. I have a memory foam mattress and a two inch gel mattress topper so my mattress does sit above the footboard instead of being below the top bar of the footboard, its flush. Which is great for my boyfriend because hes super tall so his feet can hang freely above the footboard. Buy the bed. Its worth every penny.
Buy it but beware of small discrepancies
