    Hire somebody to assemble

    I got this bed because the local furniture stores dont have anything available until spring maybe. First, my daughter is maybe 90 pounds soaking wet so we werent super worried about it holding her weight. This bed seems like it could probably hold her and a few of her friends no problem. Im actually pretty satisfied with how sturdy it is and how it looks. Theres some cosmetic flaws, but for the price, I cant complain. What I can complain about is how impossible it was to put together and how useless the instructions were. I cannot emphasize that enough. You better either have a really great marriage or hire a couple people to put it together and save yourself the bickering and blisters. It took two people, both fairly mechanically inclined and one holds a doctorate, six hours to put this together. Ive done my share of furniture assembly and this was by far the worst. In some pieces there werent even guide holes for the screws so you literally just had to muscle a screw into the wood. The instructions showed holes in pieces where there wasnt holes or vice versa. So trying to figure out which of the four posts was supposed to be facing which way was essentially trial and error. And if you chose wrong, it put you back to the beginning. It was completely frustrating. Fortunately this looks like itll last for a good while so we dont have to go through assembly again
