I chose this frame after reading reviews of other wood frames where the center beam/support was actually made of , and on those styles the center beam/support would buckle when weight shifted toward the center of the bed. I decided an all-wood frame would be a better solution for my family (especially since we have two dogs and a toddler who like to jump up onto the bed and jump around).
The frame arrived without dings or dents, and all parts were included--there was even a bag of extra hardware, just in case. My husband and I laid everything out on the floor and between the two of us (and an extra allen wrench), we were able to assemble the whole frame in under half an hour. The frame itself is very sturdy without being too heavy (I can still slide the whole bed away from the wall to make changing the sheets easier). The wood all seems to be good quality, and it has a very nice finish (I almost feel bad about screwing brackets onto it when we eventually add a headboard). Be aware that there is no lip around the edge of the frame, and a mattress will sit flush with the sides. There are sticky patches on the frame slats to help hold a mattress in place.
So far, the only problem Ive had is with the center legs on the outside edges of the frame. Our old frame didnt have them, so I keep forgetting its there, and Ive whacked my toes more than once. (Its not really the fault of the frame, but nobody trusts a review that says nothing but good things.)
I like the frame, I like the price, I like the quality. Id buy from this company again in the future.
