The bed was a little time consuming putting it together as I had to do it myself.I had to take my time as I have heart and lung disease and I have had a minor stroke. I got everything ready the day before. Putting it together was straight forward and didn't take as long as I thought. Now the bed is up it looks fantastic,it fits in well with my bedroom décor. It was well worth the price. A couple of my neighbors have had a look and they can't believe it was so cheap, one of them is thinking of looking up wayfair as she wants another bed, how's that for advertising,well done wayfair and thank you.
