this bed is great! it wasn't too hard to put together. like some reviews say. i did need a power drill but i had one laying around so it was fine. my only problem has been the fact that there are only three slats. i want to go to home depot and make some more slats just so it feels more secure. the bed is beautiful and the drawers are alot more spacious than i thought they would be. i definitely reccomend. just add more slats(:
