Was very happy with bed and the assembly except for the last step. It requires you press fit these hard rubber inserts at both ends of all 16 slats (so 32 ends) so I assume that they are supposed to keep the slats from either popping out of place or rattling. The problem is the inserts would not stay in place no matter what I did and I eventually had to squeeze them all in place with a set of channel lock pliers.
