Beautiful bed BUT you have to be handy and will need a drill.   Initially putting the front/ back and sides up is easy.  Once you start with the slats / fabric there are NO pre drilled holes on the side boards which means you have to measure pretty accurately to account for each slat to fit correctly on either side as there’s not much room to work with.  A true pain.  Thankfully I had help.    It’s a very nice piece to overall.
