We bought this bed because well have family over for a few days, and they will need a bed to sleep in. We started to assemble the bed, but we quickly found out that we would not have this bed ready by the time our family was here. So far, we have found one defective piece making it impossible to assemble. I was so frustrated I didnt bother checking the rest of the pieces for defects. Now Im scrambling, figuring out what to do on such short notice. Its overwhelming and frustrating.
