Just assembled this bed for my 5-year-old this weekend. Took me two and a half hours on my own (with about 3 minutes of help from my wife for the frame). Instructions were clear (especially if youre used to type wordless instructions) -- but I highly recommend a cordless drill with allen wrench bits to make it go faster. Just tighten at the end by hand so as not to split the wood. My son LOVES this bed, the slide is great (not too steep IMO), and Im thrilled about the 400-lb capacity so I can crawl up there to read him bedtime stories. This bed is sturdy, attractive feels like it will last -- overall a real winner!
Excellent bed, so glad I found it!
