I was worried about having this item shipped because Ive had bad experiences with UPS. The box did arrived torn open but thankfully each piece of the bed was wrapped in a fabric bag and the parts were inside the headboard in a blister pack. It took me about 2 hours to assemble on my own, would have been quicker with help lifting to attach legs. Once its all together and you tighten the bolts completely it feels really sturdy. The feet others are referring to in the middle are just two extra supports. I imagine if you tried to drag this bed across carpet you could damage those parts. It would be easy enough to lift with help and carry. I have it on bare hardwood and it doesnt slide either. It looks really nice all together and I think the headboard is plenty high to see since I am not using a box spring (as the description states its not necessary) My only concern is that the slats are held together with plastic parts but since Im not jumping on the bed I think Ill be okay. I should say, Im only 120lbs and can not say how it will hold up to a heavier person. Great little bed for the price!
Great Value!
