This bed is almost all mdf and pressed wood with laminate, the slats are plywood, and the drawer sides are wood. I started by brushing polyurethane on all the non-laminated surfaces to make the unit more resistant to moisture. I then put the drawers together with Gorilla glue on all joint surfaces (also the U-channels, T-spaces, and drawer slides). I did not glue the final assembly.
The directions are a joy to use since they are so clear. Every item fit together perfectly. Free shipping from cant be beat.
The only adverse thing is a preference issue: the JCB connector heads are chrome (on the white bed). A plastic pop-on cover would be more visually pleasing.
Overall, I have a bed that is solid, has nice storage, and should last!
Nice platform bed with storage
