This bed is quite intuitive to put together, sturdy and looks quite good. I only deducted one star from the easy to assemble line because you need to be careful not to push (or tap) too hard on the piece receiving the dowels. The slot next to the dowels is significantly weaker that the rest of the board and the wood there can crack with too much pressure or tapping. While the instructions are quite good, this should have been pointed out. A little wood glue at the joint took care of the problem.
Good product
