I really love this bed. There were a lot of pieces but the directions were helpful. The only gripe I have is the horrendous shipping experience. It took a month to get to us. And while I was told that there were shipping delays, it’s interesting that the label was created but it took an entire week to get picked up. FedEx tracking was not updated often so it was difficult to know when it was actually coming. So, if you can wait a month then this is a great bed to get.
