Sooo easy to assemble and comes with "The Ratchet", a major improvement to the usual Allen wrench you get with other furniture. This mini allen wrench ratchet was so useful and I've actually kept it in my "tool shed" (aka my junk draw - 1 BD apt life). Slightly less height underneath to store items but still great storage compared to most other similar style frames. The faux leather headboard looks great and is a nice step above similar frames. Only minor issue is the bed can slide on frame a little too easily but that could be the mattress too.
