Very easy bed frame to put together and very sturdy. I was impressed by how well made it was for the low price. It took my husband and I about 45 minutes to put it together. All parts and tools were included, but I do recommend to use a rubber mallet in addition to the tools they give you. When sliding in the steel "slat" pieces,  it is near impossible to push them down fully without the mallet. The bed frame would still be functional without pushing the pieces in all the way, but it made me feel that it was more secure and durable so we opted to play "whack-a-mole" with the slats. It worked beautifully! The reason I chose this frame wad the amount of storage underneath. You can fit several of the plastic "underbed" storage containers stacked 2 high underneath, as well as the 10.5" box style storage. I love everything about this frame. Very happy with my purchase. Thanks Wayfair!
