The reviews that reference they put some things on backwards - well, even being forewarned, my team (sons) succeeded in having to take it back apart and rebuild it correctly. Instructions are not that good and the pieces are not labeled well enough. That being said, it is well built. It is a bit lower than I like, so I am looking to get a bunkie board to raise it a bit higher and make it easier to make my bed. Can't raise it too much higher or the head-cushion will be dwarfed by the mattress, so I can't get a low-height box. It is a bit difficult for me to reach in and tuck the sheets with the angled bar - I was surprised by that, but my mattress is a bit too heavy for me to lift and pull the sheet under, so making my bed is not that easy.
