I like the look of the bed a lot! The slats were a little annoying to put in, I received my bed in the summer so a few of the pieces needed quite a lot of work to get them to fit into the frame. I don't think it would've been that much easier any other time though since it had been sitting in my apartment for some time before I even attempted to put it together. Also, I don't know how anyone can put this together alone, especially the wooden legs that support the middle beam. Other than that, I have been loving the bed! I think it's the perfect mix of minimal, modern and rustic.
