Overall, I really like this bed frame and hope it stands the test of time. Was a bit challenging to get all the metal frame piece to fit within each other but once we stood it on its side we were able to do it and then lay flat again. One thing I could not find in the description was the spacing of the slats, which I now measured and it's 3.5" apart from eachother. This was important for me because the mattress I bought request slats no greater then 3", oh well hopefully it does not make that big of a difference. Finish is also very nice and not overly gold, more of a brushed muted gold with silver and bronze undertones.
