This bed is great!
I assembled it by myself, it took me about an hour and a half because I was sick when it arrived, other than that I think it would've taken me less than that.
Before purchasing this bed I asked Wayfair if I could use slats on this bed (I have slats from my previous bed) and they answered "no". The bed originally comes with 4 slats, which is not enough to support a mattress, you'd need a box-spring (I didn't want to use a box spring) . I still took the risk and ordered it, knowing myself very well, i knew I was going to be able to make it work using the slats i have. After I assembled the bed, i went ahead and drilled the 4 slats that come with the bed onto the bed, then put/laid the ones I previously had, of course it required a lil bit of extra work, but it's perfect now. 
Will try to post pictures later.
