The bed arrived safely and all parts intact. The 3/star rating has nothing to do with the quality of the wood. Indeed, the pieces are of great quality. The problem is the assembling of the bed. All you have is pictures but the pieces of the wood are NOT labeled, yet the diagram tells you to connect, say numbers 7 to number 13! In this case, it leaves you having to figure out the pieces by yourself, and as a result a lot of trial and error is involved. There was no way I could have assembled the bed by myself, and I am no novice. I had to enlist the help of a professional carpenter and it took us AT LEAST 7 hours to put the bed and its headboard together. Even after all these, the drawers just couldnt fit properly, no matter how much we rotated the bed. All I can say is that if you are gonna be buying this bed online, you better have a professional around to help assembly it (at an additional cost to you), otherwise, give yourself at least 3 full weekends to put it together.
