Out of the 5 major items I've had to put together by myself the past week including another bedframe with a trundle, this frame had the most challenging instructions. The pieces barely fit together correctly and weren't aligned once I made sure everything was tightened according to the instructions. The wood slats are paper thin, 1 was clearly cut wrong and wouldn't fit at all. After figuring out the totally jenky and ridiculous way they fit together and into the slats of the frame it barely holds even the weight of a pretty light-weight mattress. I can't take it apart and return it but I really wish I knew how to do that. I will have to either throw it out or modify it majorly to make it work. I'm thinking to take out the whole inside and get a sturdy box spring that will hold the mattress since these wood slats are definitely not going to cut it. And I'm a tiny person. What a total waste of my time and money! Customer Service was awesome and helped me so much!
