I have to admit that I was a little nervous when I ordered this bed. Its a lot of money to spend on something sight unseen. I knew it would be delivered in one large box, and I worried that a 103 pound box would be beat to death by the time it arrive at my door. Then I worried about what I was going to do once it got here. Im 4ft, 11in, and I dont weight much more than the box does. The UPS man struggled to get it out of his truck and onto my front porch. I wound up opening it there, and bringing it, piece by piece, into my bedroom. The individual pieces were light weight but they felt really sturdy. Each part was labeled, and the 26 pages of instructions were really easy to follow. I highly recommend using a drill with a low torque setting instead of the included hex wrench to save time. The drawers could have been made sturdier, but I can remake them with wood when the plastic eventually wears out. I am using an Basics 12 memory foam twin mattress on this bed, and can still see plenty of the sides and back. Well I could until I added 9 pillows. Lol So far Im super happy with it!
Easy to assemble storage bed at a great price
