I spent a very, very long time looking for a new bed for my guest room/office and finally decided on this one. And I can honestly say that it was a great decision! The bed is a beautiful, dreamy pink velvet and looks even better than the pictures. The directions were easy to follow and all the pieces, plus packages of thoughtfully included extras, were there. I was massively impressed with the way the bed was packed. There is a black non-woven fabric that it comes wrapped in, plus the usual cardboard box and styrofoam packing. This company is serious about getting your bed to you in perfect condition! I saw on some of the other reviews that people had trouble putting the bed together or that the holes didn't line up, but everything went together perfectly and easily. I put the bed together by myself (with about a minute of assistance from my daughter because the brackets and screws on the arms are MUCH easier to line up with a 2nd person) using only the little hex key and wrench provided in about an hour and a half. If I had used a power screwdriver with a hex bit it would probably have been about 40 minutes start to finish, but I have no idea where my hubby put them so it came down to good old fashioned elbow grease. ;) I'm delighted with the way the bed looks. I purchased the 5 inch Lucid Memory foam mattress for the top so that it would look more like a couch when not in use and it looks awesome. I'll be buying another Lucid mattress (I'm a bit of a fan because they are like sleeping on a cloud.) for the trundle and I'll get their 8 inch size because I have some guess that need a bit more cushion. In short, just buy it already!
Perfect!! Really, really perfect!
