Im an engineer by trade but you definitely dont need to be an engineer to put it together. It took me 2 hrs to put together the twin XL bed. Seems to be plenty sturdy. Its a $213 bed so I knew what I was getting myself into as far as quality of materials goes. Its on the same quality as any furniture you get from or Target, compressed board and cam locks. Its not the type of furniture that will last a lifetime, but for a babies room that you know the furniture will be temporary- its perfect for the task. Id suggest this product.
Direction are good. The mattress slats need to be fastened at booth ends. I used self tapping drive screws after the bed was trued up and the drawers aligned properly. This made the bed very stable,
It took two of us 2.5 hr to assemble. I added a bunkie board on top of the slats for extra support for the mattress - so it doesnt start to sag between the supports
No squeaks or creaking. It looks nice, and the drawers are a good storage solution for a small space.
First off dont listen to the reviews that claim that the instructions are difficult, or hard to follow. If you cant assemble this bed I dont know what to tell you....
The top critical review about building a box using 2
It came in 3 different boxes, 2 the first day, one the next. I dont know how some people spent 8 hours building this bed. I built the bed while cooking dinner for my family in about 2-3 hours, I took my time though and did other stuff (kids never leave you alone) in between.
This bed is ideal for a tweens, teens or other single sleepers. This is a value product - no fancy frills, requires some effort during assembly but once assembled, sits solid. If you expect strenuous use for bed (such as a child frequently jumping on it), then find something more sturdy.

For $213: you get what you pay for, but its totally worth it

Do not buy with the recommended headboard. It doesnt work.
It had a ton of pieces. Took quite a while to assemble.
Quality, solid and sturdy
Nice product, looks solid and sturdy. You will need to buy a headboard to make it much better. Recommended
Worth the space
Kinda a pain to put together, and some drawers stick, but worth the drawer space!
Read the instructions !
Nice bed for the price. Could use better instructions, otherwise its a good deal.

For a tall teen.
I bought this for my 15 year old grandson. He put it together himself in about 3 hours. He loves it!
