Put this together over the better part of the day. Knowing that diy furniture like this tends to shake loose(especially a bed...) I used wood glue and thread locker on all the screws/fasteners. If you plan on putting this together by yourself youll want an extra pair of hands but its not impossible on your own. Given what it is its sturdy enough for two people under 400lbs together plus a mattress. It doesnt creek or wobble but I wouldnt recommend jumping into bed. The finished edges are nice but the compressed board is rough underneath so be careful not to get your foot stuck under it. You will want to stick some felt pads on all the contact points if you have hard floors. This will keep them from scratching and keep the particle board in one piece. And you will definitely want to lay some heavy fabric between the unfinished slats and your mattress to keep it from being torn by splinters. The six drawers are what sold us on this frame. They allow us to move a large dresser out of the bedroom and keep the storage capacity. If you have any experience with furniture youll have no trouble, just go slowly and read carefully.
Not bad for the price.
