Was worried about assembly given some of the reviews. Attempted to hire a professional who declined saying it would be too challenging.  Ended up assembling myself with 1 other person and it wasn't so bad. Neither of us are very handy and we knocked it out in about 4 hours. 

The bed itself looks nice and it's doing its job of saving space in my apartment.  The space between the head of the mattress and the bed is annoying. I wake up with my pillows having fallen through the gap. My comforter does not fit when the bed is closed, but my mattress is also a bit thicker than recommended.

The bed is completely unstable as you open it, so you have to put extra care into anchoring it to the wall. This took me a good bit of time--and required some big holes in the wall.

Overall it seems to be well made.  But it's made of cheap particle board so I don't expect it to hold up that well.  Going to be quite the challenge to move it when it's time for that.
