Great, but know what you are doing to build, it. Handy person needed.
Awesome! NOTE in 2016 I paid 186.00 prime and it was 5 stars for that price. For 240.00 plus its only 3.5 to 4 stars as it is easily marred. Mine look very nice after 18 months, still it has some scuffs. If I had little kids it be all scratched up.
I have some ideas why people could not build this, for me it was very straight forward.
I laid everything out on a sheet of plywood that I set on two saw horses to give me a large table. I also used two 40 clamps. I built each section by myself and had the entire thing complete in 60 minutes. With a second person using this method using the second person to get all the sub parts togehter it would take be maybe 30 minutes. Of course I do this stuff all day, someone coming in with zero skills its a 2 hour job even with the tools I mention and get a second person.
I am a woodworker, I am thinking some tried to build this on the carpet or even worse straght up and down and not laid flat Yeah doing it that way would be nearly impossible, but again because am a woodworker it never even entered my mind to even try to build it that.
Do yourself a favor. if you dont have a super large table(I mean very few would have a table this large) , go out and get a sheet of plywood a couple saw horses and two 40 clamps(just return them when done). A screw gun would be helpful as well for me a requirement.
With these basic things two people that didnt even know what they were doing could build this pretty darn fast, without this stuff it will be tough.
This is a very nice day bed, if I had to make it from scratch I would cost me 600.00 in time and material all said and done.
I took a series of pictures on how I built this in an hour by myself. Had I seen these pictures I might have been able to do it in 45 minutes or less the first time.
Mt technique nees.

Sheet of plywood
