We assembled the bed last night. The directions were a bit confusing at times. There were a few pieces that didnt line up flush to the pieces it was supposed to be attached to and wouldnt secure properly to the bed; however, it seems like it will hold. The hardware that used the allen wrench was stripped. We had to use needle nose pliers to hold one end while turning the allen wrench. I am not sure why screws werent used instead. The were plastic supports that needed to be placed on the bed which holds some support beams. The plastic supports had the holes pre-drilled, except for the screws that were meant to hold secure it to the frame.
I guess for the price of the bed, I cant complain too much. However, if I could have shipped this bed back easily, I would have due to the parts not lining up and some of the hardware issues. My concern is that when we take this bed apart when we move, it will not hold up when re-assembled. The bed does look nice, but I will update the review once the bed gets used.
Average quality; hardware/alignment issues
