Difficult to assemble, difficult to move, not worth it
Finished assembling this bed yesterday/ took me good 4/5 hrs,
the only good part seems to be the cost. the planks were of different sizes, and the holes for the screws on the platform would not match the frame under it, so landed up drilling new holes, and if the holes are not exactly on the center/ the board frame under it will just rip apart, the platform is made of four planks/ 2 large ones for the sides and 2 small ones for the center, as i said the holes on these did not match the frame, so if you screw it just like that/ the side would all be malaligned and the moulding would not fit i drilled new holes, finally giving up on the central planks/ that are now held only by one screw each.
to fit the moulding you are supposed to screw upside down, lying down .very very painful, and the review saying that your hands will pain the next day is very very true.
i have hidden the ragged unequal end of the platform towards the wall the only reason i have not returned it is that i have been through a lot of trouble opening the box and carrying 130 pounds of wood up 2 floors (in pieces), then spending 4 hrs of back breaking work on it i simply do not have the strength to dismantle it again
My advice / if you are seriously planning to buy this furniture, please go to a forrest cut down a tree and try making one for yourselfthat will be a lot easier
