Easiest piece of furniture I have ever built! Very straightforward and only took 30 min max. Love the way it looks and definitely high enough off the ground to store plenty underneath
the unit was relatively easy to assemble and is made of excellent quality materials, Only issue that I have is staying together for storage - the pegs do not hold it tight and secure as instructions show.
I was eyeing this bed for a long time to replace an old bed frame. This bed was not the easiest to assemble, but it was easier than . I recommend having a rubber mallet handy, which I found takes care of any issues of pegs fitting too tightly (which you do want them to fit tightly, in the end!). Follow the included instructions carefully, and youll be fine. I assembled it by myself while watching the Democratic debate, which probably accounts for a couple of the mishaps I had but that I was able to easily correct In the end, its exactly what I wanted: sturdy, unobtrusive, a good height from the ground (not too high, not too low), and compact for the small room its in. I also love that there is no footboard since this bed is in the corner of the room (with two people in bed, its hard for the person next to the wall to get up if there is a footboard in the way). I highly recommend it!!
My husband and I put this together. It took about an hour, referring frequently to both the instructions and the video. I feel like, now that we have put one together, we could assemble another in half the time or less (probably still not as fast as the guy in the video, though).
We didnt have an electric screwdriver - it would have helped - or a deadblow hammer/rubber mallet to work with the pegs - also would have helped - but we managed fairly comfortably with a regular Phillips head screwdriver and beating the pegs (gently!) with the side of a wrench. Yeah, we never claimed to be experts.
I really liked the quality control on this platform. ALL of the holes lined up just fine, and we were supplied the right number of pieces, all in good condition. Ive assembled high end computers before that werent as careful (had to have my husband drill an additional hole in a cpu fan mounting bracket, to line it up with the motherboard).
You really need to watch the video (the twin bed assembly) a few times, while looking at the written instructions, to get a feel for the process. Being a nerd, I took screenshots. And Id consider labeling the different wood cuts - when the instructions refer to F-??, it would be helpful to have it stamped somewhere on the wood itself. But thats a fairly minor detail. All in all, Im delighted with this mattress platform.
I just put this bed together. First thing I noticed was the wood was a good quality- a few small rough areas but mostly smooth. I havent finished it yet, but mine was tulip poplar wood and it was a little greenish, the manufacturer says it will brown with age, so I will wait to see how that looks before I either seal or stain it The instructions are brief but got the job done. It took me about an hour. Have a rubber mallet and cordless screwdriver handy. This is mostly pegged construction. I put my mattress on it and layed on it and it was sturdy- didnt move at all. My floor is carpeted, I dont know if it would move on hard floors. Happy with purchase.

Great Attention to Quality - Best to Use Both Written Instructions AND Video 2

Great bed frame
The bed frame was easy to assemble and is especially great when moving. It looks nice too!
