Love the look and feel of this bed so much! It was a pain to assemble for 1 person (female).  Make sure you get a strong extra set of hands and use a rubber mallet to get the wooden dowels to fit. They were a tough fit for me.  

it is an good bed, other than assembly and the struggles there, also make sure you have a 4” box spring if using a regular height mattress. I had to use a step stool to get into bed until the new box spring game in.
