This bed is beautiful! Its simple and works well with the rustic industrial look Im going for in my room. It wasnt difficult to put together the instructions were easy to follow. But it was definitely a two person job since some of the pieces are pretty heavy. Im giving it four stars just because its kind of creaky now that weve had it for a few weeks, but I may just need to tighten a few screws to fix that. Overall, Im very happy with this bed!
