Im going to start by saying that I love this bed.once its put together. It was a HUGE pain to put together, though! I was able to do it mostly by myself (my husband has no patience for construction), with only a little help steadying the largest pieces. The problem I had was many of the holes did not line up. MANY. Fortunately, I didnt strip anything out in the process, but trying to get it to work without damaging the metal was tough. It took about 4 hours total for construction, mostly because the slats are time consuming with several tiny pieces to attach. BUT after it was all assembled, it is awesome! The bed is very sturdy. The silver color is more of a grey than the metallic I was expecting, but it doesnt look bad. The desktop is a lot more heavy duty than I was expecting, as well. I purchased this for my 9 year old son, who absolutely loves it and cant wait for his computer to get set up on it. very reasonably priced as well.
Tough assembly, but love the final product
