Putting this bad boy together was a dream. I have been assembling stuff like this for 20 years and have wanted to burn some pieces of furniture in the past rather than finish assembly. this thing was quite the opposite. it was wonderful. I cant recall all the little touches that made this so consumer friendly, but here are a few:
/ the Styrofoam packaging were in little bags so foam doesnt get everywhere during unpac (granted a little more plastic used)
/ you will not need ANY of your own tools. seriously (see below)
/ on other projects, the bolts to connect the frame typically need to be held in one hand with a flat head screw driver and tightened with the other hand. these were designed to be held with your hand while tightened.
/ they give you a ratchet for tightening all the allen bolts. you will likely decide to keep it for other projects. it is a really nice little tool.
/ the predrilled holes for the frame line up perfectly and have perfect fitting grooves for the washers
/ the support arm is felted on the underside to prevent on noises from appearing over time
/ the wooden platform lays in with velcro. honestly, a brilliant idea. it will never move and it installs in 1/4 the time vs a drilling option.
once you are done, you have a beautiful, sturdy bed frame. hats off to the manufacturer all the way around! Nice fit.
most thoughtful assembly / excellent quality wood
