I got this bed for my teenage son who is 15 and 64. It was easy to assemble, it took me about an hour and a half- and the instructions were very simple. The picture is a little deceiving as the bed is vey low and doesnt seem as sturdy as it looks in the advertisement. Since he is tall the foot rail makes it hard for him to stretch out. The bed( with the foot rail) would be good for someone who is about 56 or shorter
The assembly instructions were almost incomprehensible. There were included 4x 5mm hex keys for use in assembly, unfortunately the bed required 5mm and 4mm hex keys.
Neither my wife nor my adult son could decipher the assembly instructions. Through 2 hours of trial and error, I was able to puzzle out how to assemble the bed.
Once assembled, the bed seemed quite sturdy, so there's that.
The bed is nice but for the bolts do not fit correctly, some holes are too big while others to small, my real reason for low stars is WHO EVER DID INSTRUCTION PAGE...a Three year old! Its nothing but a very poorly picture of Letters, which are bolts/screws...where are the Numbers referred to on the three years old instructions? Its the worst diagram for putting something Ive ever seen, I suggest you hire an 12 year old to do a better instruction detailed ,everything labeled for assembling in a normal time frame not hours and hours of wasted time due to the fact a company would expect intelligent people to try and understand this! I very rarely give bad reviews but the only good thing I can say is who ever wrapped each piece certainly loves their job! It took solid 25 mins to finally open the box and unwrap the layers and layers of tape pieces. I hope all this time and frustration is worth the bed frame when and if put together correctly by figuring out assembly with no detailed clearly shown instructions.
I think the frame is very pretty. It fit well in my guest bedroom. So far the only negative is how long it took to assemble. It took me about 2.5 hrs to finish. It wasn't hard to put together, just very time consuming. It may have went quicker if I had help. Everyone who has seen the bed frame has committed how pretty it is. Definitely recommend.
The instructions are the equivalent of assembling an IKEA purchase. It took me 2 and a 1/2 hours to put the thing together due to the lack of written instructions..... and only 3 visual images. However; after all is said and done, I am very pleased with how sturdy the frame and hardware is. Especially in comparison to any IKEA furniture purchase I've assembled. The only other complaint I have is that there were minor scratches/ chips in the headboard and footboard upon removing the plastic coverings. If you're looking for an inexpensive/practical industrial piece, I highly recommend!
Ive been sleeping in it for 3 weeks now seems to me holding up well. It wasnt terrible to put together but had some issues come up like threads not going in without a fight and some screws were bent to the point we couldnt use them. Seemed to come w a few extras so we got it. I wish the frame had some more girth. Its not as thick as Id like and the head board isnt very high. Eventually this frame will be moved into a guest room and Ill find something else with a little bit bigger in size. Good deal over all for the price $153. Shipping time was absolutely inexcusable it took nearly 6 weeks before being shipped out. My payment was withheld twice and dropped back into my account.

Instructions are horrible!

Pretty but Horrible Instructions
It comes in 40 pieces. Not worth the time it took to unpack, sort and put together! My husband almost. Threw it in the garbage!
Good
the bed makes a lot of noise
Decent product for the price!
Easy to assemble, the packaging needs improvement as it had a really bad oder when opening the box. Also the instructions are a bit off as well.
Very pretty

Sturdy bed frame - too many pieces
Great bed frame for the price. Way too many pieces. Took a good amount of time to put together.
A very happy purchase!
