Once assembled, this bed looks great and seems to be sturdy. My daughter loves it in her room. But man, what a pain to assemble. The instructions were okay but towards the end we had to squeeze parts together with a ton of force to get the screws to catch the thread. It was frustrating. It didn’t take super long, but would have been much easier if the headboard connected to the sides better. Long story short, I’m never unassembling this bed. If we sell the house, we’ll sell the bed frame with it.
