LOVE this bed! Super cute and sturdy. Definitely recommend two people putting it together  as it took me several hours on my own. Includes all tools to assemble but they’re tiny. Tedious bolts and tightening but it’s worth it for the sturdiness of the bed. No creaking at all. Also recommend not using a box spring as it makes the bed very high. Bed is tall enough to allow under bed storage as well!
