    Love it!

    This low loft bed is in a small basement bedroom with a low ceiling. I was worried because even though it gets high star reviews overall, some of the critical reviews worried me. Im pleased to say that it came in perfect condition with all pieces, no cracks or splinters or broken knots. Finish was perfect condition also, and assembly was 2.5 hours from the time the box was delivered until we had it fully set up to go, with 2 adults and a screwdriver drill attachment. It is very sturdy! Its true that holes aren't drilled for many of the screws. The headboard and footboard have small punch marks to indicate where to put the brackets. I was nervous for splitting the wood in that area, so i drilled very small pilot holes and it turned out fine. The other holes that are not drilled out where the slats connect to the bed rails. I also drilled out pilot holes for the support beams. The slats have holes though so I just screwed them through directly with no pilot holes and it turned out fine with no splitting. Pay attention to the pieces which are numbered on the edges, and some also have direction arrows. Some identical looking pieces arent quite! Some reviewers said the support beams were sharp underneath. Ours had 2 sharp corners and 2 rounded-off corners so be sure to put the rounded ones down before screwing them in. As a final note, this can accommodate a massive amount of under-bed storage!! Ours is for a teen so underneath we have a dresser (ikea NORDLI), clothes hamper, file cabinet-turned-bedside table and cube storage unit (ikea EKET—which fits perfectly under the footboard and the light gray is almost an exact color match). Then there is still a ton of space behind it for other storage or making a little hidey hole for sprawling out, though at this age my teen cant fully sit up haha.
