I recently received my order of this bed. I did have my handy man assemble it. He said it was easy to put together but I know it would have been a challenge for me. I do however like the bed. The storage in the six drawers has really helped my closet situation in my small home. I did have my handyman install "L" (or corner brackets) to keep the bed square. This was recommended in one of the reviews I read. So far everything works well. The bed provides a good platform for the foam mattress I also bought. I would recommend this bed as it has met my needs and is sturdy.  

Pros: Good value, looks good
Cons: heavy--assemble where you are going to position it.
