After being without a bed frame for roughly a year, I was super excited to finally be able to order this mate's bed. I love the color and it looks fantastic when assembled. Be advised that it is made from pressed wood, but most affordable furniture these days is, so I was not surprised. Furniture made from real wood (solid wood) is extremely expensive, so my recommendation is that if you are looking for something made from real wood, find a craftsman and have something custom build. Otherwise, be aware that anything under $1,000 is going to be made of pressed wood and/or particle board. This does not make it a bad bed or junk, just a more affordable option.
The bed arrived a week earlier than what told me, so I was pleased. No damage during shipping (though the boxes looked like they had been roughed up considerably). It took me and my roommate (who is much handier and stronger then me) roughly two hours to put together. All the wood pieces are numbered, but I would've appreciated it if actual written instructions accompanied the pictures in the instruction booklet and the hardware (screws and dowels, etc) had also been numbered for identification purposes. If you are concerned about the durability and/or are not very good at assembling furniture, spend the extra money and include professional assembly with your order.
Word of caution, however: the description says the bed is 54, however, this means that it will fit a 54 mattress. The bed frame itself actually measures 55 1/2 to 56, so be sure that you have measured the space you want to place the bed prior to ordering to make sure it fits. I have a door to a balcony in my room and have had to pull the bed roughly 2 inches from the wall in order to make sure the door will still open properly.
Overall I am very pleased with this purchase. I love the color and it goes really well with the color scheme of my room. It is very comfortable. No unnerving noises or shifting was experienced on my first night.
Great bed for the price! The mattress sits 10 off of the ground and does not need a box spring. We are VERY pleased with it and are actually going to buy a Queen for our room.
You do need an impact drill for all of the screws or it would take forever to put together.
You can fix it on your own but having another person helps the process. For the drawers I didn't have built in holes for the wheels so I had to make my own. However, they do draw on the bottom,with pencil, where it's supposed to go.
Nowhere in the listing does it say that the headboard that it shows in the pictures of the frame is not included. The combination of drawers and headboard were the reason we decided to purchase this frame and here we only got a portion of the frame. It is another $200 to get the frame that I was under the impression was already included with the frame because the listing is misleading.

Make your own holes for the drawers
You can fix it on your own but having another person helps the process. For the drawers I didn't have built in holes for the wheels so I had to make my own. However, they do draw on the bottom,with pencil, where it's supposed to go.
False Advertising

Sturdy
It's perfect and easy to set up
Good product Bad instructions
This is a very good product. However, the instructions are lacking. But if you're intuitive enough you can figure it out.
Love it
Nice
