Well...after four hours I finally was able to finish putting it together. The directions are HORRIBLE...extremely small print and not very explicit, see photos. Some of the slats were a little too long and tire the covering, see pictures, not sure what else I could do to get them in. Tools are included however finally found bit to fit my electric screwdriver and made the last part quicker. Once I finally put it all together and added the mattresses, cover and pillows I purchased, I do like it. I needed an extra bed for company and am not too fond of sleeper sofas. I ordered the 6” gel mattress and it’s pretty comfortable.
