2 load bearing pieces were cracked at the joints. 1 bolt was not completely machined and therefore couldn't be used. The bed bows out, both where a mattress would go even without one yet and also width wise, making it very difficult to align and bolt up. Arrived with a few knicks and scratches, which I feel is to be expected. Unfortunately reaching out to the seller was difficult for me as it took almost a week for them to get back to me and I simply couldn't have my kids without a bed anymore. They wanted me to send pictures for proof of purchase (bought and messaged through ...) pictures of the model number sticker as well as the damaged pieces and their identifying stickers (good luck if you removed them for aesthetic reasons) I was simply hoping for 2 replacement pieces, not a whole new bed. Therefore I feel like the hassle wasn't necessary and i really didn't want to disassemble the whole thing after hours of work all over again. 2 stars simply because with those issues aside, it does seem to be stronger than the other beds I looked into, so hopefully it will last and my kids won't get hurt from it!
