This bed is for my teenaged son's room.  It was put together by the shipping people.  They had to borrow tools from ME to screw it together.  They were able to screw every other one in due to how many were missing. [...]It was missing over half of the needed screws (but since I had read that was a problem in another review--I had extras on hand for when my husband came home.)  I did not allow my son to sit on the bed until all of the screws were put in.  My husband also cut out two more center support legs for the center bar and this helped make it beefier and it certainly did not squeak at all then.  I would recommend it...although it would get higher marks if it came with all the pieces and was a little beefier in construction.
