I purchased this bed for our master bedroom. First, all the pieces and parts were in the zipper compartment of the headboard.  Once I removed everything and swept out the interior, I began assembling. The directions and tools provided made this job incredibly easy! This bed truly dresses up our bedroom, is incredibly sturdy (my husband weighs 220) and is the perfect height. My only problem with the bed is that the right piece on the headboard has a gap at the bottom. Since it's not obvious, we weren't concerned. I highly recommend the Rothbury Wingback Upholstered Bed!
