Im a professional carpenter and this took me about 8 hours to put together myself. USE AN ELECTRIC SCREW DRIVER. My palms were completely swollen the next day from the ridiculous amount of hand screwing youre required to do into non/pre/drilled wood. I had to fight some of the pieces to sit where the instructions said they were supposed to go. The worst build experience of my life, but once I started putting it together in my tiny apartment, I had no option but to finish since I had nowhere else to put my mattress in the meantime. I started at 8pm and ended around 4am. Cute bed though and wont be hard to break down into medium/sized pieces for moving. I also really like the height. It has started creaking a bit, but nothing dramatic. Its good enough.
Took a while to assemble but i just used non power tools. Its pretty sturdy. Other than price and assembly, i would have given it 5 stars. Thank you so much.
Instructions terrible. Product is very well planned in functional.
Company may contact me for better explanation to help develope instructions. Just ok
After 10 long hours, the bed frame looks nice and feels sturdy, however. Im not sure what the other reviews meant when they said it didnt take a long timeit took me 10 hours to do by myself and that was with no breaks. This was half with a drill, half without. A lot of the places to screw dont have holes so those were a nightmare. The last hour I had someone helping, otherwise it wouldve taken so much longer. Some of the boards came warped which didnt help the stress at the end. Very functional.
This platform came in two shipments totalling four boxes, two of the boxes are identical and the first box I opened had a sticker stating box 1/4. That was the box with the instructions. The instructions were fairly clear to understand. Make sure you assemble this in the room you want it in and make sure you have an extra 4/5 feet of clearance beyond where the bed will go to use as an assembly area because you are building three sections separately then assembling them in place. It is very sturdy despite the individual sections being quite light. I only gave it 4 stars because during assembly I came across two spots that had knots in the wood, yes these are wood not particle board. These two knots just happened to be where screws needed to go so it split the wood. I intend to keep the bed despite this because they are in locations that are not visible and do not affect the stability. If not for that I would have given five stars. Suggestion for seller / manufacturer this value and usefulness of this item could be greatly improved if you could build it in a way that the empty void under the bed could be made accessable by the buyers for storage, in my case I would slide in an under bed gun safe. Perhaps on the side sections add a swivel and latch on opposite side so that the side sections can swing away allowing access to that void. Outside of that I love this item great job. Super.
We have only had this frame for 3 months and within two months, its already breaking. All the seller wants to do is send me more screws. Not worth 1000 at all. So upset about this purchase. This pictures attached are only two of the problem areas. More screws have popped out since.
We ran into two issues that forced us to have to stop at the end of the night without finishing. One of the boards for the frame is bowed making it difficult to get the frame aligned. One of the screw holes is slightly too large and the screw is not catching. We will have to go and get wood glue to fill the hole and hope once it dries we can attach the frame in that spot. My husband is ticked that we have these issues for such an expensive bed and our son will be sleeping with his mattress on the floor in another room until we solve the issues. Product is Ok for the price.
Its a beautiful set and makes the most of the space on any room by providing storage. It is complex to put together and takes quite a bit of time so be prepared to spend some time on this one. Great price and somewhat durable.
Sturdy and aesthetically pleasing storage bed — not an easy combination to come by!
Assembly instructions were clear. Putting together the bed was an all afternoon project, mostly due to the number of components and some user error. We did realize we had received a couple incorrect pieces which halted progress. The seller was very quick to respond and ship out replacement pieces! Looks nice and sturdy.
Took a friend and I a full day to put it together. Drill gun saved my arms / hands from all the screws. Some instructions were inscrutable and make sure you are building it where it will be used. Afterwards for the love of your toes make sure to put SOMETHING in those corner storage spaces or you will be making up new inarticulate and LOUD cursewords when you pass near it especially on nocturnal bathroom forays. The storage is decent but you can see where it could be better deeper when you are assembling it. A moderately ok / slightly ambitious woodworker could make the storage far better. thanks great product.

Very nice product. Horrible instructions. Company lacks video on YouTube going through assembly

Great value with one exception

Decent storage. Assemble it with a friend a drill gun.
