There are lots of pieces to this bed, I was shocked. I watched a video where someone said it took 30 minutes to set up, that how long it took me to get all the pieces out of the box and line them up on the floor. In total it took over 3 hours by myself Note, I was in no rush.
Wish I could send it back and go to the store and pick one up but for a single bed this thing is heavier than my queen bed made of natural wood. The thing is when all is done it is a beautiful and very sturdy, well made bed, just wish they had done some of the work.
I wanted something that looked similar to a good RH frame, but didnt want to pay $3k for it. This was a pretty good pickup, with only minor gripes.
Pros:
1. Looks great, color is beautiful
2. Cubby holes are a great feature! They also come pre-assembled, saving a heap of time
3. Unique platform look
4. Slats were held together by stapled fabric, very easy to throw the whole string of them on
Cons:
1. Headboard could be thicker. Seems slightly wobbly and isnt very thick/sturdy. I worry putting too much weight on the headboard could hurt the wood.
2. Doesnt appear to be very flush. I had to physically lift the entire frame to get some screws to go in. Much cursing and sweating during assembly is required
3. For 2, Im worried eventually the frame will tear itself apart over time if its not flush
4. Assembly was absolutely horrible. The steps are clear, but getting the washers and screws in for the odd angles is a nightmare
Some extra cons that werent related to the product:
1. I asked the seller upfront if I needed extra tools and the seller said no. Great joke, I needed a Phillips and an Allen wrench (wrench should be included but wasnt..)
2. Box came completely tore up with packing material falling out
3. Big chunk of wood missing from one of the insides of the beams. Its on the inside so I dont care, but thats pretty lame, it shouldve been obvious it was defective.
Overall at the price it was an okay buy. I saw it on sale elsewhere on the Internet for $800 (after I bought it of course!) and that felt like a better price point for the cons given. Im happy regardless, just not looking forward to next time I have to move it, and the quality downsides werent great.
Was a pain to put together(mainly putting the legs on), easy enough to only require 1 person tho. Its a very cute frame my daughter loves it. Couldnt wait to jump into bed.
I enjoyed the easy to follow instructions provided and only found a little challenge in having the drawers close flush with the side of the bed frame. I dont think this has to do with the construction of the bed, simply with how I position the bed when moving it to its place. You have to play with it so it is aligned straight or risk not having your drawers close properly. Just wiggle bed around until you reach that point. Do not force drawers shut or you could break the rails on inside or crack the wood they are attached to. Strong and nice bed frame with drawers (a plus)!

Good for the money.
No lables on parts, instructions were decent, but could have used more explanations.
Lots of small pieces but well made

Good quality, similar to Restoration Hardware

Very Nice Bed
Was a pain to put together(mainly putting the legs on), easy enough to only require 1 person tho. Its a very cute frame my daughter loves it. Couldnt wait to jump into bed.
No storage
There was no storage like it said, was easy to install and sturdy
Assembly wheeeee
Get ready for an epic assembly: its pretty much rock solid.
Read assembly carefully
Great storage
Looks just as pictured

Would definitely order again
Very study, good quality.
Elegant, easy to assemble product. Will recommend
There was a little scratch on one of the drawers, other than that everything was delivered ok.
