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.
Bed is great it wasn’t hard to assemble. Very sturdy. Great for my boys and when they have someone sleep over. Many compliments form family and friends
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.
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.

Very nice product. Horrible instructions. Company lacks video on YouTube going through assembly..
Instructions terrible. Product is very well planned in functional. Company may contact me for better explanation to help develope instructions.

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

Helps keep the room neater
One of the great buys Ive done
This is awesome I have used the trendal bed for a toybox. The kids pull it out n get what toys they want n push it back in.
Love it!
A beautiful piece with lots of storage. It takes a whole day to assemble but instructions are easy to follow.
