I've assembled quite a few flat pack beds over the years and this was "okay." First of all, it came in 3 boxes. The bag that held all the parts had broken and all the parts were sprinkled throughout one of the boxes. On the plus side, all the holes lined up, the screws threaded and for the most part, had enough room to navigate the angles to screw everything together fairly tightly. With the slats screwed in, as well, it's fairly sturdy.
