The reason for 4 stars is the following One of the 6 drawers gets a little stuck when opening and closing. I have tried several times to loosen and tighten the screws but still needs a little extra tug or pull to open or shut. Not too much of a big deal I guess, my 2 year old can open/close it. Just doesnt flow as easy as the other five. Also, when I opened the package, one of the head/foot boards has a dent in it. (see picture attached) It looks like someone let the box fall on a rock or something. The hole was through the box which caught my attention right away and sure enough, the board damaged. It does not affect the sturdiness of the bed, so instead of going though the hassle of shipping it back, I decided to just use that piece as the headboard so you cant see it while against the wall. Of course, a NEW bed without ANY damage would have been ideal. Maybe better packaging would have protected it better.
For the positives: Lots of storage space. Seems sturdy so far but time will tell. Have only been using just under 2 months. Pretty easy to put together. I dont consider myself very strong and I was able to put the bed together with the help of 2 toddlers while my husband was at work. My 4 year old could not wait to sleep in it, so I carried all the pieces upstairs and got to work on it. Help from my husband or any adult would have been nice, but it got done and thats all that matters.
Also, the mattress lays on slats of wood, not one solid piece of wood. (see pictures) Before you lay the mattress on top, make sure you didnt leave any tools or toys inside. I had to fish out plenty of toys before putting the mattress on. Overall, so far so good. I like the look, the storage, the ease of assembly, and most importantly, my son absolutely loves his bed.
Becareful about the wood. It isnt super hard but it works. Its such a nice platform bed. Easy to assemble and peice together. The drawers have a weight limit so do not just pile on textbooks like I did but i love the look of the bed. I got cats so im not struggling with cats hidning under it and theres so much storage!
That also goes you cant get a night stand because the drawers on either side will then be blocked. Choose wisely!
Nice bed frame. As described advertised.
Had trouble with assembly, contacted seller, received reply quickly they were very helpful in sorting out issue sending needed replacement parts (bed went through recent design change and we received 1 box from old design 1 box from new design there was 2 parts that didnt fit because of change).
This bed looks good and has a ton of storage. Its a good value for sure. My teenager is able to fit all clothes except for hanging clothes in the 12 drawers. If you are not someone that is super handy, Id recommend that you hire someone to put this together. There was 0 chance that I could have done this myself. I hired a handyman who spent about 3.5 hours building every single drawer and wound up paying him double what we originally agreed because it was that labor/intensive. Now that its together though, its fine. One other thingbecause it has the two rows of drawers, the bed sits very high with a mattress and bunky board. Im 54 and it requires a little effort to get on it!
Do not use a screw gun to assemble the drawers, the clips will break. If you have nightstands then the two drawers closet to the headboard cannot be used unless you move the nightstands each time. I did not reinforce this as others suggest and it is just fine.

Love the bed. Simple and effective
Becareful about the wood. It isnt super hard but it works. Its such a nice platform bed. Easy to assemble and peice together.

price ok
easy to assembly
Be prepared to spend all day putting this and the matching head board together.
If you have a dresser or night stand too close to the head of the bed you wont be able to fully open the head end drawers.
I would buy again if needed
Bought this bed for my daughter and it was very easy to assemble did not take long at all and its extremely sturdy Im a big guy and it can hold me
Sturdy, love it!
Nice item

Very good
Not bad. Easy for one person to assemble. 1 or 2 areas are difficult to complete.
