Not 5 stars because there were a few knicks and scratches. Not too noticeable after assembly. Easy to fix if I wanted too.
Assembly is pretty straight forward. Instructions were only pictures though. Sub-par labeling on wood pieces. Great labeling on hardware parts. To save time and frustration, after the first step I took five minutes to put labeled pieces in numerical/alphabetical order, and mark unlabeled parts and put them in order, which expedited the next several steps since not searching for parts all over while flipping back n forth between the instructions and the identification of parts page, because several pieces look very similar.
Would still recommend for the price. My expectations for self assembly products may be skewed, because I pretty much only purchase self-assembly products, so I have a lot of experience with them. You have to know going into the sale that there will be minor cosmetic touch ups after assembly. My expectation is that during assembly, the material is strong enough to not cause any more damage, especially as it relates to the sturdiness of it. And this bed met that expectation.
Looks good. Solid wood! Sturdy!
