It took my daughter and I about 4 hours to put this together but we love it. Looks and feels very high quality. We have a 14 inch mattress on it so you dont see much of the headboard once the pillows are on the bed. I was worried that the lift mechanism might not work or not work well but once it was all put together it is perfect. My daughter is extremely happy with her beautiful new bed and Im thrilled that we have that storage space but I do with it was a few inches deeper.
Love this bed. Storage underneath is a great place to store off-season clothes, decorations etc. Tons of room!. Pneumatic lift is easy to operate. Very nice looking as well.
Put together myself after service no showed. I am a single female and did not require assistance. If you do not have assistance I suggest proping the frame on a chair while attaching as holding and attaching solo isnt possible. Works great, son loves it
UPDATE (4/2020):
Its 2 1/2 years later, and the bed has gotten
creakier and creakier. The middle bar has bent cracked the slats have snapped off. My boyfriend I are not large/heavy people! In the past 2 years, Ive developed back issues (might be unrelated to the bed, but Ive never had back issues before getting this bedframe).
Were now shopping for a new bed frame maybe a new mattress since I think maybe the bed warped the mattress. I still love the storage function, and its been an absolute lifesaver. But not worth the rest of it. Really bummed as I LOVED this bed when I bought it.
Im not sure how to add pictures to an old review, but Ill try.
Old:
Love this bed! I got it today, and I (a 44 year old, average-sized, not very strong woman) put it together myself. It took about 2.5-3 hours, Id say. But I did spend almost an hour trying to fix a mistake I made (screwed something in the wrong way AND stripped the screw so I couldnt undo it. I ended up drilling my own holes and combined that with duct tape. It worked!).
Anyway, so it is possible to put it together as one person, but I dont particularly recommend it. I kind of wish I had paid the $50 for installation.
As for the bed, its fantastic! Doesnt make any creaky sounds while Im on it. Opens closes fairly easily (its easier to open than it is to close, oddly enough, but its not as hard as I was worried it would be). Its really nice-looking, too. I got the black one. It feels like a quality bed.
everything was good except the gas hydrolics to help lift close the bed WOULD NOT budge at all for me. im not a weak dude they were on the right way but i pushed to the point i was afraid of breaking or bending the frame, luckly you dont nessicarly need the hydrolics but also the screws that hold the back braquets to keep the bed from sliding down when you lift up were also to big now i cant lift the frame up all the way or else my bed slides down..other the that it is nice looking a good bed set. but 3 stars for the 2 semi big inconvinces
Great bed, a lot better than I thought it was going to be. The only bad thing I have to say is the storage area could use a more sturdy bottom for holding things
Pointers!
-easy to assemble
-all parts will be used, no extra so dont messed up
-matress covers the whole frame, unlike as advertised in the photos
-wood seems flimsy, ill update this as time goes by. If there will be no update, everything is good
-best for the price!
Was worried about ordering this online having not seen it in person but, we are very happy with this bed!
Directions were easy to understand and parts hardware were clearly labeled.
It took 2 of us about 3 hours to completely assemble and we are very happy with the results.
The boxes were pretty beat up when they arrived, probably because they were so heavy that every warehouse worker or delivery person pushed or pulled it across the floor. But, the parts, included the padded parts were well protected with cloth and cardboard packaging.
I bought this in December, didnt move right away, therefore wasnt put up until August. Though assembly was easy and looks great, the slats continue to break. At first there was one, and now 4 are broken. Im going to have to buy additional wood so my son can use this bed.
Well I have to admit I was afraid to order something so big through . I just knew it would be damaged and I would have to pack it up to return it. The boxes did look a little rough, but no damage. We put it together, I say we as I helped with a few screws, my husband did most of the work, took about two hours. I am very happy with the bed. Really nice looking, holds everything we needed the storage for and it looks nice. I would recommend it. I truly think this is a great purchase for the price.

Exactly what we needed.

Great but needs more sturdy of a bottom

Slats easily broken
