Well designed. excellent instructions. 2 days to assemble from many parts
I was impressed from the arrival of the 4 boxes without any damage and no missing parts. Assembled easily but definitely required a lot of time due to many parts.
Wood quality is similar to products. The use of plastic dowels made it easy to fit into accurate predrilled holes.
size means you either assemble it in the room where it will be placed or, after assembling the major pieces, get through the doorway with the partial frame and complete the assembly in the room; doorway and hallway would not allow moving the entire bed through. And of course, it would require partial disassembly to relocate.
Side modules need better angular reinforcement for any movement or they will separate. The plastic dowels and perpendicular abutting dont really handle any uneven movement. Once in place, no problem.
Not sure how it would be reachable but a sizable space is left useless in the middle of the bed. Possibly redesigning the foot module storage to contain a long/deep drawer would permit more storage.
It remains to be seen after some use (a Novaform mattress is on top) whether a lack of center reinforcement will cause sagging or discomfort.
