This was easy to assemble. The directions are very clear with lots of pictures. The hardware comes packaged all labeled and with extra pieces included. The hardware is high quality, sturdy, way better than any other brand. Took me about four hours by myself and Im an old lady. Well worth the $money$.
Took a little over an hour to assemble with one person. Good quality for the price. Not planning to use this everyday so it looks likeeee it!!!! should work well.
I actually assembled most of this myself in a few hours. The directions are very easy to follow and loveeee how all the screws and such are in separate containers, along with the tool needed. I purchased the denim blue daybed and its a very pretty color. I also chose 6 twin mattresses so it fits in the trundle and the top mattress isnt so high that it covers the arms of the daybed. Perfect for my home office that is occasionally a guest room.
Came super fast, little time consuming putting it all together, but I did it alone and had never attempted to put anything together likeeee that before. Took several hours doing it alone. Seems study and is perfect for extra guests that you may have.
This daybed is great. Nice quality, easy to assemble, perfect for that sleek look or casual. I had an awesome experience with customer service as well. I dont regret buying this product.
Im extremely happy with my new bed. I waited for 6 months for the price to go down and my patience did pay off. The quality of the fabric and construction exceeded my expectations. Its difficult for 1 person to build but not impossible since I built it all by myself. I cant wait to sleep in my new bed tonight.
I decided to write a review to provide some helpful tips on this bed. Some background: we were looking to add a bed to our second guestroom but anything bigger than a twin would take up too much room. We also felt likeeee having a twin bed was a bit of waste since only 1 person could sleep there. Enter this trundle daybed bed (two twin beds for the space of one twin bed!). Perfect! I looked at many designs and they all seem to gear towards too childish/girly (i.e., something you find in a dollhouse or lacked style (all the fabric ones). I really likeeeed the simple design of this daybed that I felt could last through changing trends. Just change the pillows/blankets to fit your style. A note on color, I got the Castanho color which looked likeeee an ash brown in pictures but is more a warm brown. I believe another reviewer described the color as more rustic cabin less mid-century -- I think thats a spot on description. Although I would have preferred a ash brown, the warm brown still looked fine. Putting together the bed took about 1 hour. The instructions were pretty clear. Essentially you make the top bed first then you make the bottom trundle. The last step for both parts is to drill in each individual slat. I decided not to do this.
TIP 1: Use Velcro for the slats instead of drilling them in
I ordered some Velcro Tape of 30ft and 3/4inch wide for $18, I probably used about half the box. I put the rough side on the bed part then cut up the soft parts in strips to put on each end of a slat. I wasnt sure how well the adhesive would stay so I also used a staple gun to add two staples to each soft strip on the slat. Then just secure the slats on the bed and trundle using the block spacers provided. This whole process probably took me 30mins. And now the daybed wont be a pain to take apart or move should we ever need to.
TIP 2: If you have high carpet, use furniture sliders instead of the wheels
So our room has super high pile carpet and the trundle wheels were essentially useless because they were too short/small. I decided to remove the caster wheels and instead ordered some furniture sliders. I got a set that had 8 carpet and 8 hardwood sliders for $12 -- note, the width of the discs (3.5in) was the same width as the trundle slat where the wheels went. I combined 1 hardwood slider on top of 1 carpet slider than just placed it under the slat in each corner where the wheels were originally attached. I thought about securing these sliders with tape or glue but it wasnt needed -- the weight of the trundle kept the sliders in place. The trundle now slides super easily.
TIP 3: Install some straps to make pulling out the trundle easier
So because of the high carpet, getting our fingers in between the open space of the trundle and the bed was a bit difficult. I installed two leather cabinet pulls from (search OSTERNAS leather handle 6 -- currently $16 for two) on the front of the trundle. Now our trundle bed is easy to pull out.
All in all, very happy with our purchase even though we had to make a few modifications.

Beautiful bed. received wrong color
I would loveeee to give 5 stars. The bed is beautiful and the directions were easy to follow, but I ordered the tan bed, and received the grey.
