was kinda nervous after reading reviews but surprised at the quality for the price. If you follow directions carefully when putting together, you should have no problems. And yes, it took a while, but there are a lot of parts to this thing. I love that it has 6 drawers as I specifically wanted one that is full size with 6 drawers as opposed to 3 that most other beds offered.
Update: Its been 2 and a half years that Ive had the bed. Its still together and stable. However, in the last 6 months Ive noticed some serious squeaking, (just by moving around in it, nothing fun) Im pretty surprised it has lasted this long, I have rearanged my room a lot. Pushing and pulling the bed back and forth didnt really hurt it at all. I still say great bed for the price, very basic look though.
After reading all the mixed this on this bed, I decided to buy it and if it was too flimsy or the drawers too wonky I would replace it in a couple years and put it in a guest room. It took my son and I about 2hrs to build but it was not hard at all, just a lot of parts. The bed is sturdy and the drawers have no issues (like stated in other reviews). Im not that happy with the appearance, its black and I knew that when I bought it. I thought it was gonna have a black wood grain finish but its just black. Its just pretty cheesy looking but, its a nice bed with great storage. Great for the price.
I put this bed together by myself (33 year old woman)in about 3 or 4 hours.. I LOVE the bed and the matching storage headboard, they are sturdy and dont scratch easy.. I do have to say this is a VERY heavy bed though, but I love all the storage
about a couple of years in of owning this and has worked out great! Bed slats slide around under mattress, use a low profile box spring and they dont move.
Love the storage compartments. I wish there was some kind of handle for the drawers cause they are hard to open. (like at the top of the drawer cut out so there is no nobs sticking out if you know what I mean.)
No problem putting it together, just took our time. Took two people about 2 hours to assemble. Still sturdy after 2 months. Drawers fit well and can hold 8-10 rolled sweaters per drawer, or 3 rolled blankets.
Quality construction, however, lots of pieces. One needs to be mechanically adept to put this together. My husband is but it still took him 6 hours nonstop to assemble it.
Should have been a warning to not screw bed frame to tightly cuz middle wood pieces crack under even light pressure. Other wise the build and instructions were very easy. I am not a strong person and I was able to put this together practically all by myself in a few hours. Not entirely sure how transporting the bed will be if I ever move cuz it was hard to move over even a foot after building it. Before mattress was on the bed the frame is very wobbly and can become crooked easily.
Takes a bit to put together. The slats felt weak to me, and one of them did break Its bigger than my queen size mattress by like 4 inches, and you can see down into drawers between the slats since its bigger than the queen mattress.
I am probably going to buy a sheet of wood or two from the local hardware store to strengthen the slats.
To be fair, I went ahead and gave it a 4 star, its more of a 3.5. You cant beat the price and its made my storage life much easier.

Easy assembly, good size drawers.

Great storage. Fairly easy to assemble

Comes in many pieces

Great for price. Easy to assemble. Just wish basic frame was a little sturdier.
