Super love this bed! A bit salty the caramel color was out of stock for 3 months but the white is actually lovely so I'm not super salty.
Things to note: DO NOT OPEN ALL BOXES AT ONCE. The instructions are (mostly) super easy to follow. Each box is basically one quadrant of the bed. After you build the first one you get super fast at it (unless you lock yourself outside for two hours like we did). There's one area I think is a little confusing and that's the little fold out shelf up near the head of the bed. They include it in boxes that don't use it. I wish they'd shift all the drawers and shelf doors to the final box because we spent 10 minutes trying to figure out what we had missed. This is the only somewhat vague area so not a big deal. Oh and one other area was frustrating and we ended up having to slightly change things. I honestly think it was just 130am and we were too fried to be building so that's likely on us not the product.
Build with a lot of room and get help. I build things all on my own normally but this would have been super irritating without four hands.
It is super sturdy. I have no idea how you could put this together properly and think it wasn't sturdy. It's obscenely well constructed especially compared to other platform beds. Everything is freaking bolted and screwed in place. All solid wood. I was really pleased seeing how supportive the platform was. The boxes come perfectly packed. We got it during winter so FedEx had gotten mud and snow on one box. Everything inside was dry and perfectly wrapped.
It took us about 5 hours not counting breaks and getting locked outside. It would have been quicker but it was end of the day and I wanted it perfect.
First night sleep not a wiggle or weird noise from the frame. Will update if anything changes.
