    Way too heavy for one box

    The price and quality and bed platform receive 5 stars. It is worth it to buy it, and I would recommend it to a friend. But I would tell that friend to have a helping/hand or a team/of/hands standing by on the day of delivery. Unless you are a power lifter. One star is for the shipping process and assembly process. Some things were not labeled very well or labeled at all. I would still buy this again even though I strongly dont like the shipping process. The assembly process was not bad, more annoying than anything. I understand shipping in one box may be cheaper or may ensure that the whole platform arrives at the correct address. But it is unwieldy in one box, too difficult to manage in one box for one person. This is a very nice looking bed platform that does not occupy the entire room. It is sleek and leaves a lot of space in a small room. I am glad I purchased it. That said, it is way too heavy for one box. My UPS driver was a strong guy, and he could not get it up ten steps. Luckily, I was home and was able to help him get it up the stairs. Unluckily, I hurt my lower/back helping lift the box up the stairs. Once inside my apt, it was so heavy I could barely slide it from the living room to the bedroom. I had to stand it up on the long/wide edge and slide it while balancing it. I would recommend packaging the headboard and the sideboards together. The wood slats and metal frame could be sent in a separate package. Both packages could be secured together with cuttable plastic straps. When the UPS driver gets it to the residence, the driver can cut the plastic straps and deliver each box to the customers door step, which would be manageable for one driver and for one customer. It would also be manageable if there were more people involved in the shipping and receiving process (a family could handle two boxes just as easily as one person could handle two boxes). Pay attention to the pictures!
