This bed frame was easy to assemble and a bit on the heavier side due to the wood & metal construction. I have always been a fan of having the bed low to the ground so this really hits the mark. The individual pieces looked a little rough (i.e. welding job and generally assembly seemed rushed), but it's functional. Had to put a little bit of elbow grease into it as some of the holes for the screws weren't lined-up just right. Overall, assembly aside, I'm pretty happy with this purchase. Threw a Purple 2 on it and have been sleeping well ever since.
