Great design and storage space, just be sure to do some extra reinforcing for longevity and quiet
Check out the other prepac drawer storage bed frame for good instructions on reinforcing it when you first assemble it. You will need additional L brackets, tape for the slats to get snug in their metal slots, a sander or lots of time with sandpaper, and some thin and tall wood screws to hold the slats down to the inner support pieces. When you reinforce it as instructed in the other review, you must remember to also sand the slats after you install them and put in the screws through the middle. Then you will have a splinter-free surface to lay your mattress. Also, put together your drawers early and make sure you have enough clearance to install them all on both sides, if you are putting together this bed near any walls or furniture that may hinder you. I learned that the hard way.
If any of you need the instructions for reinforcing and stabilizing the bed for longevity and quiet, request another review and I can give step by step instructions and possibly photos to assist your build.
