This is a pretty good bed. Assembly can become frustrating, so have lots of patience and at least one help, who should have patience, too! My tips: 1) Sort and label your screws and bolts before starting. 2) There will be 4 extra screws, not mentioned in the manual, 50mm long. Use these, not the 35mm ones, to screw 2 of the rungs in. You will see that the 35mm one that the manual tells you to use barely pokes out of the hole // how does one expect that to hold onto another piece of wood, and to support a human, however small and light, as they climb up the ladder? 3) Some pegs might require a little sanding to fit into holes. Careful to not overdo the sanding. 4) Refer to the last pages where the decorative pegs are put in. Do those first instead of towards the end. Its easier to pound them straight down. I had to sand a lot to fit them, but as mentioned, do not overdo it. Too many parts. Assembly is a pain.
