Solid, everything in good condition, straightforward to put together
So far so good after only 1 day. I purchased this on a recommendation from the NY Times. Put it together by myself without difficulties. Follow instructions exactly and there shouldnt be a problem. All the parts were there. Being natural, you do have to put in some work if you want a basic finish for protection and appearance, and I couldnt be bothered to do that as Im tired from a moderately physical job. The frame is sturdy, with no squeaking. After 30 days of breaking in, Ill tighten up the bolts as is typically recommended. Slat distance is appropriate for a standard memory foam mattress, though I had a flat enough futon to serve as a base and also boost the height. Mattress size is somewhat flexible as it sits on top of the platform with no guardrails except for the headboard.
