Assembling this was quite time-consuming and took much longer than any other bed I have put together before. There were a lot of pieces but the instructions were not too difficult to read and follow. I do not like that the posts on the four corners are not one solid pole, they are put together which leaves a visible line in the middle of the posts. The pieces seem to fit snug and tight. There were a lot of pieces and assembly was not simple. It ended up being too large for my daughters room, so I had to take it back apart which was easy. The black pieces that snap into the frame for the slats were easy to knock out using a rubber mallet. I would recommend this product, but I feel like the product could have been made a little simpler to assemble.
Not what I expected
