I love this bed , it look about 2hours with break to put together . All the tools needed were in packaging PLUS More . easy steps to follow with instructions . Absolutely would recommend this bed the structure is perfect real sturdy . Exactly how high I wanted it to be . I use my box spring just for a little lift until I get a bigger mattress but in all it was perfect . I was so scared to order but it was soooooo worth it  also took 1 day for delivery which is AMAZING !!!!!
