This is a great bed for under bed use/storage and I am really pleased I chose this bed as a result of seeing it in a National Newpaper article on the best 10 beds.
As some of the reviews suggest, the note that this requires assembly doesn't prepare you for the mamoth task. Yes, it is straight forward, but be prepared, you need to be logical and practical (e.g. if you don't like jigsaw puzzles you probably won't enjoy the experience?). Also, as with all flat pack furniture I found a set of pre-drilled holes too big for the screws provided (on the base of the draws); therefore I had to improvise and find replacements. Putting this bed together as an individual took me the best part of a day with breaks etc. It is for this reason I only gave the bed 4 stars. However, it was worth the effort though..... fantastic!
