HOLY BAGILLION PIECES BUT AWESOME BED
First off I want to say that this is a great bed. Thats said / here are the particulars:
When this Junior Loft with Storage Steps arrived I had to get my teen daughter to help me get it in the house. (Im a small woman, but I can usually move heavy things around without too much trouble) This box was HEAVY / And Long. So. fi youre not a heavy lifter be sure to have a help of some sort with moving this box.
After getting it into the room in which it would be set up, I opened the box to find a never ending flow of pieces to pull out. There are seriously a bagillion piecesI added some pictures, but I didnt even get all the parts/pieces in the pictures. AND there are a TON of different types of hardware. It comes with a hex key but its definitely necessary to have a couple of screwdrivers as well (flathead and Phillips) Now, I am pretty handy at assembling things and I usually dont ask for help from my husband unless I really need a second hand to hold things together. So, I started putting this bed together around noon (after taking ten minutes at least just to get all of the pieces pulled out of the box and somewhat organized). First off I have to say that there is a learning curve to assembling this bed. In order to put some parts together, you have to go back and loosen some other parts that have already been assembled / and there are pieces that dont go together completely smoothly and need a little persuading (not that Ive ever assembled anything that didnt have parts like this). So, I worked almost non/stop until about 3:20 and still had plenty left to finish. By that point though I was seeing this as a challenge, so I was kind of excited to get my kids picked up from school and get back to finish the job. But by the time I got home, my husband was home and ready to help, though accepting help was hard to do considering the fact that I felt like I had already accomplished so much on my own and really wanted to take the whole credit for such a tremendous feat. Having the second set of hands though was extremely helpful and we finished the job in about 25/30 minutes. Standing back to look at our (MY) accomplishment, we were very happy with it. It is super cute, and very sturdy. I dont have any worries that it will teeter, break, or fall apart underneath my daughter.
In the end, this bed is EXACTLY what I was expecting and hoping for and my five year old daughter LOVES it!
