I was encouraged by other reviews I had read, and just put the bed together slowly, without tightening everything up until Step 9. Everything is labelled clearly, and you get a parts list to check before you get started (highly recommend doing this). I put it together in about 3 hours - and it looks pretty great.
I think I imagined the storage space to be bigger than it is, but honestly, its plenty. We replaced an old Mandal platform bed with storage drawers with this bed, because a 4-drawer bed means you are forced to out the bed in the center of the sleeping area to use both sets of drawers. The center lift means we can have the bed right up by the windows, its got a bench below it, and theres no loss of access at all.
Note: the bed is harder to push back down than to lift up, but I think thats maybe a safety feature.
All in all, it was well packed, the slats are wood, rather than metal, the fabric finish is nice and understated, and its not hard to assemble, especially if youve done a fair amount of assembling in the past.
Frame is very sturdy, like the way the slats fit together. Ultimately, its easy to put together (instructions are easy to follow), but the drawers were a bitch to put together. No box spring needed, fit my bed perfectly. Definitely recommended.
I was able to empty two full laundry baskets and 4 drawers of my 5 year old sons clothes into the drawers under this bed and still have room for more. This bed just eliminated the need for his closet and dresser. Totally worth it! I built it by myself fairly quickly. The drawers can be tedious but if you try to do all 4 at once its better. Also, use your own sturdy Allen key set because the one it came with stripped out fast.
So this thing came in some pretty terrible packaging, like it was all just shoved in the box. With that being said the headboard did have a bit of a tear.
However, now thats out the way, for the price I paid and the quickness of delivery, I really cant complain. All other beds from brick and mortar stores would have taken 6 months and I did not have that time.
Im not handy at all, like literally I will pay someone to do anything if I could. However this came with easy to read instructions plus everything you need to put this together. I was able to put it together over a few hours (just put on Netflix and get started like I did) and I was happy with the results.
Some people have complained about the drawers being plastic and I actually think thats fine. They are much bigger than I expected and all of my clothes fit pretty easily.
So far the bed has held up well, any other issues Ill report back.
I love it. I bought this for my 2 year old daughter to grow into it and it is so beautiful. I was worried it would look cheap but it definitely does not. I assembled it with the help of my 2 year old lol the only thing I had a hard time with was the leg brackets would not line up. Other than that it was a breeze.

Pretty easy to assemble - looks more expensive than it is

Missing one box to assemble ?
Missing head board did not arrive can not assemble with out it
Worth the money

Easy to build and holds a lot of clothes
