Just built it, very quiet so far. So far one complaint needs labels Especially the drawers. Pay close attention and you better have common sense on building. I used a phillips screw driver and drill to assemble. UPDATE: After a gentle move Took it apart and back together, one of the screws busted part of the side panel. Very easy to scratch not well built. Probably great for a child. But Ill probably be needing another soon.
Ill never buy it again. Id rather swallow hot coals and chase it with a gallon of gas station toilet water than have to assemble the damn thing again. Otherwise, its ok. Nothing fantastic. If you want a headache and a bed frame without paying $800 then do it. Otherwise...pay the $800.
I couldnt ask for more at this price. The drawers are plenty large enough and slide nicely. You do have to be gentle with the wood when putting it together, but again that is expected for this price. As long as you are careful putting it together, it is perfect.
The bed arrived safely and all parts intact. The 3/star rating has nothing to do with the quality of the wood. Indeed, the pieces are of great quality. The problem is the assembling of the bed. All you have is pictures but the pieces of the wood are NOT labeled, yet the diagram tells you to connect, say numbers 7 to number 13! In this case, it leaves you having to figure out the pieces by yourself, and as a result a lot of trial and error is involved. There was no way I could have assembled the bed by myself, and I am no novice. I had to enlist the help of a professional carpenter and it took us AT LEAST 7 hours to put the bed and its headboard together. Even after all these, the drawers just couldnt fit properly, no matter how much we rotated the bed. All I can say is that if you are gonna be buying this bed online, you better have a professional around to help assembly it (at an additional cost to you), otherwise, give yourself at least 3 full weekends to put it together.
Easy to put together. Had it for a couple of months and very happy with it. The draw back is that you cannot put a night stand next to it or else you lose two drawers but we know that before purchasing.

It is not built well. If you ever need to move this frame will not survive.
Redesign the drawers...
Wish these would be designed so that first drawer near head was half width to allow a nightstand. Using one means that drawer is useless.
Updated, not holding up

If you reinforce this like the other poster suggested it works great and is very stable.
Annoying.

It served me well for 10 months but alas it gave up the ghost, but I finally know what its like to have sex on a teeter/totter.
