Once finished this is a fantastic mattress frame at an awesome price...but its a MASSIVE pain in the butt!
All that storage and drawers...you have to build that, so be prepared. It does NOT go together in just a few hours unless you have a Red Bull transfusion or a racing car pit crew helping you (on that note: DO NOT use power tools!!). The instructions are good but there is only drawings (no words) which leads to some confusion. If they would have just colored in the varnish side on the instructions, it would have saved me an hour of taking it apart and putting it back together when I discovered Id put a part in backwards.
HOWEVER, once it is DONE and you get finished cursing at it in several languages, it is a really gorgeous bedframe with TONS of storage!
Beautiful pain in the butt with tons of storage
