Okay so the box is going to be heavy I weigh about 105 lbs and am very small generally and I could barely move it into my apartment by myself but I finally managed to do so. I assembled it by myself in about two and a half hours, had to go back and re-do a few things but it was easy to finesse. The most important thing with assembling this is to listen to the instructions where it says to not tighten all the screws all the way until you have it fully assembled. If I had listened to this a little bit more carefully the things I needed to fix would have been easier to do. Make sure on pieces E, F, G, and and H the odd shaped hole is on the outside, this is where the storage drawers latch onto so it looks nice and you will not be able to put on the wooden slats if you dont do this part correctly. The assembly is pretty much in alphabetical order which helps a lot and then the screws are close to being in numerical order to that helps quite a bit. The Y7 ally wrench is what you use to assemble the bed. This isnt explicitly listed in the instructions so I want to make sure people know. The storage doors were the most difficult part to assemble with the very small Wi-Fi screws but I got it eventually and really enjoyed the storage capacity. I got a full size bed and there is a small gap between the headboard and mattress either at the top or bottom of the bed depending on how you lay it on but it is pretty much flush with the sides of the mattress. Ensure that you have the wooden slats fully in the small holes on the side part of the frame so that it will be sturdy and secure. You should not hear any creaking. I slept on the bed for the first time last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. They headboard is pretty soft so if you manage to hit your head on it I think you will be okay. It did have a slight chemical smell when it first arrived but by now (morning after being taken out of the box) that has pretty much dissipated. Would HIGHLY recommend this product.
WOW
