This item comes in three heavy boxes. There are many parts and pieces to assemble. Separate screws, pins, brackets, all in little cups to start. Make plenty of extra room where your pieces are, it is going to get messy fast. In the end you will get a nice product. It takes more than one person to built this bed. It would be great if they actually show you step by step but they leave some steps out, and leave too many in. The bed alone took 3 hours, not to mention I have not started on the draws yet. It is very sturdy and very heavy furniture. If you have hardwood floors use the slide guides for heavy furniture to move this unit. If you drink beer it will take a lot longer to complete.
This item looks nice, comes with easy to fallow instruction, and all parts included. It was a bit difficult for me to put together. The wood is soft/cheaply made. the wood finish is not real. I had to add about 50 of my own screws to keep the Frame together. The wood slats that are supposed to hold the mattress dont stay in place very easily. i ended up throwing some plywood underneath my mattress to keep the frame straight and to keep my mattress even, Even helped strengthen the whole frame.
this looks great - however I had to go and get a part for one drawer because it was not in the box... It was a standard runner for the drawer so it was at the local building store - but it is the reason I am taking off one star
This manufacturer knows how to package items of this size and weight so they don't arrive damaged. Very satisfied with that. The product itself is pretty good for the type of structure it is. For the price and value ratio I gave it 4 stars. It is not solid wood, so if that is what you are looking for, look elsewhere, but for my 12 year old daughter, it is great and looks great too. I would not hesitate to recommend this item to others.
This platform bed is sturdy and being plain white looks good in most decors. The special bonus is 6 drawers of storage equal to a full dresser but now hidden away. We all need more storage! The only warning is that it sits correspondingly higher from the floor. For this reason avoid thick mattresses [IE greater than 12 inch thickness].
This platform storage bed has been working very well since we put it together about 4 months ago. We followed other peoples recommendation of installing corner brackets and foam insulation like you install around windows under the bed slats. We only moved the bed a little bit to get it where we wanted it and have not moved it since. I would not buy this bed if you are the type of person that moves often. Drawers work ok but are little better than I would expect for a bed in the price range.
This product gets the job done. The drawers are nice, there is lots of storage and the bed feels sturdy even after having it for several weeks. My one complaint? It keeps chipping -- for no reason. It hasnt been hit or anything, but I keep finding new chips....
This product has partical board holding it together which has to have parts screwed into. The pieces fall apart and we ended up having to glue together the main components that hold together the structure. You definitely get what you pay for. It was a cheap bed and will serve its purpose for a little while. Took 2 days to put it together. Has lots of storage.
This product is a great buy. It is not for a typical DIY and may require advanced skills to put together. What helped for me was a bottle of wood glue, sheet rock screws, and a few wedges and shims. It take a while to put together, but when your done its well worth it. The wood glue on the interior edges of the drawers are a must. Great product at a great price.
This product is exactly what you'd expect for the price. It seems sturdy enough, but not very user friendly to move around. I completely expect to disassemble and reassemble when I move.
The bed was delivered without the assembly instructions, but the company emailed me the instructions within a day. These were very detailed and easy to read. The bed was very easy to put together. I did the work by myself in less than 3 hours.

Bed with storage for free.
