Saw this bed on Wayfair and fell in love and was so glad all the reviews were so positive. It's well made and true to the picture. My handyman assembled it because he was here doing other projects but didn't look too difficult. The one downside is that the company shipped a second carton of all the pieces aside from the silver headboard and railings -- I have a whole second set of the metal rods, the wooden slats, etc. That's a huge waste. Too bad. Otherwise, a good experience and definitely a good value.
