This frame arrived yesterday. Hats off to Mary who said she and her husband put it together in an hour. My brother-in-law and I put it together in about two hours, both of us over 70. Still, not so bad. No parts were missing, no hardware missing either. I havent slept on it yet but so far I am pleased with the heft of it. Its sturdy and minimalist in design. Thats how I like it. The wood itself untreated looks fine and, according to notes in the assembly directions, will darken slightly over the next 3 weeks. So Im going to let it do its thing and see what au naturel looks like then. Note to the manufacturer: it would have been helpful to have placed labels on all of the pieces identifying them. I know you identify pieces in the directions, but the extra step of labeling on the piece itself would have made assembly even faster and certainly less stressful.
I LIKE this frame.
