This is a nice bed frame. The directions are straightforward but it does take two people to put the bed together. Also, the directions recommend not using a power drill (just Phillips screwdriver and Allen wrench). It took us 4 hours to put together since the two of us were careful to count all the parts and follow the directions. For someone that is used to building or putting furniture together, this would probably take half as long as we needed to assemble the bed. The only part of the drawer that is wood is the front panel and the drawers are not very deep but there are 6 drawers. Overall, we are very happy with this purchase.
