This is a really nice bed, love the color of the wood, the style is sweet and it feels very solid. Nice to have the storage space underneath too.
I read the reviews before buying, so I was aware that others had trouble assembling the bed. All comments were true - it is not easy to assemble - mostly because the instructions are not at all detailed. So beware - the instructions are minimal, and NOT clear - visually or written (actually, nothing is written on the instructions). Assembly will be a bit of a guessing game. Two people are required. Ultimately it is worth it for the price- it's a great piece of furniture!
