I chose this bed because of the great reviews and the price.  Our 19-year old granddaughter is coming to live with us for a while to experience 'city life'.  She's from a small town in the northern part of the state.  Anyway, we have a den that we converted to a bedroom for her.  The bed arrived last night and we decided to put it together when I get home from work today.  2 hours after I left for work, my husband texted me a picture of the bed fully assembled.  He said it was very well made, all the holes lined up, and it was easy.  It had to be easy...the man has never held a hammer or screwdriver in his life.  So there you have it....
