I would give this bed a 5 star rating based solely on the looks and the quality. It looks amazing and is really solid. However based only on the assembly of the bed I would give it a -10 if I could. It's a good thing I watched Maguyver because seriously you'll need some mad skills to put this beast together. The instructions are literally the most vague instructions in the world. You basically have to guess which screw goes where. It gives you a photo diagram and then you get to start the guessing game. Seriously, someone needs to rethink the assembly instructions because it's a complete joke. Other than that, I'm pretty happy with the purchase. Because some of the screws are in uncertain places I worry about how well it will hold up over time. Guess we will see. But seriously though, mentally prepare yourself to put the dang thing together!
