I was a little nervous buying this and reluctant to put it together due to the reviews. The box was damaged when I received it. I was thrilled to find yet another box inside and about a half inch of foam in casing the bed. Assembly took about 40 minutes by myself. But I take my time so as not to put it together incorrectly and have to go back on steps. Ive done that a lot in the past. I did wait to put the wood on til the end because I always tend to put things on backwards I think this helped keep from scratching the wood during assembly as well. I bought this for a low ceiling basement bedroom. The only thing I didnt like is the bedspread touches the floor now. I may add a bunkie board down the road to elevate it some. But that is a personal preference issue and nothing wrong with the bed itself. Overall bed is aming and just as described. very reasonably priced as well.
Great Bed
