It takes time to assemble, but when finished it is perfect for how many little ones (twin) and it has enough space to store things!!! Well made, easy to assemble and useful.
It was not the easiest to assemble, but I can appreciate why some of the pilot holes werent pre/drilled; because not everyone has a perfectly level floor. The fact the bed is SOLID wood and not Weetabix (particle board with a veneer) is REALLY nice and it will last a long time. Every section of the instructions gives you tips on adjustments to make the drawers fit properly. The mattress frame, while a pain to fit with having to make holes in some cases (youll see), seems sturdy enough.
Pro tips:
Have work gloves. DEFINITELY HAVE A MALLET. ONLY assemble with a buddy, the fact they say to do so is not a challenge, you could seriously damage pieces if attempting to go solo. From previous experience, keep the manual and extra hardware together to make it easier to put back together after a move. It will take 8/10 hours to assemble unless youre a super pro at this stuff.
My only complaint is I had a non cosmetic part with a knot that popped out of place, making wood glue and vice grips handy to have available. Solid and basic.
The build is state of the art . the time i open the box is all sealed and not open all new Not like the others (Store Winsome Wood Melba Buffet coffee )they will give you the one mix with return and tape the box. Nice well made.
I saw mixed thoughts in the reviews for how much time assembly would take. I loved the look of this bed and the storage options, so I went ahead and got the King Bed and the Headboard. They arrived at around noon. It was a total of 7 boxes for the Bed and Headboard. I figured with my wife getting home around 6, I would have plenty of time to surprise her
I was wrong.
The total assembly time for bed and headboard was 12.5 hours (this includes time unpacking all the components). I did this solo, and they do recommend 2 people to be fair. Ive build plenty of bookshelves, beds, dressers, and desks from , but this was another beast altogether. Many of the parts arent labeled, so you just have to eyeball it and hope you are using the correct ones.
After the 12.5 hours, am I happy with the bed? Absolutely, it looks and functions wonderfully! However, I would just pay someone to do this if I were to ever do it again. It was far too tedious. Quality products.
It took me a lot of hours to put it together. Not hard. Just a lot of parts. I dont have a lot of room, hence the storage bed, and a bad back. Got it done and love it. I added a couple vintage speakers in the front cubbies. Lots of drawers, shelves and storage. Really Worth it
I read all the reviews staying to jump on buying this if youre on the fence, they were right! Its the lowest price for this model and its such great quality for the price. You can feel how sturdy each piece is, and assembled even sturdier. Only a few confusing parts of the build, like they switch which piece is on which side of the page from one step to the next, but overall easy to follow and assemble. A lot of people complain about the build time. Yes, it takes forever, but look at the build! I did it by myself over 8/10 hours (spanned 2 afternoons). Other note is the drawers were smaller than expected, I hoped to pack with clothing so just double check those dimensions! Absolutely love this bed frame overall, so happy! Not so bad.
After 10 long hours, the bed frame looks nice and feels sturdy, however. Im not sure what the other reviews meant when they said it didnt take a long timeit took me 10 hours to do by myself and that was with no breaks. This was half with a drill, half without. A lot of the places to screw dont have holes so those were a nightmare. The last hour I had someone helping, otherwise it wouldve taken so much longer. Some of the boards came warped which didnt help the stress at the end. Overall good.

Perfect for small rooms!

If you never put furniture together before, this is not for you.

GREAT BED! Assembly, not so great

A beautiful piece with lots of storage. It takes a whole day to assemble but instructions are easy to follow. Pretty sturdy. Good size.
I like it
