This bed was a monster putting together. It’s definitely a two man job. It was only me and took about 2 hours. The tool provided placed a limit on the timeframe also. When completed, it was worth the struggle. This bed is beautiful. I did notice little holes (nothing to noticeable) throughout the headboard, foot board and side rails. I was initially bothered by this then, I took a look at the picture on the site. It appears (to me) that they were airbrushed out. Now that’s its put together, I haven’t given it another thought. Another issue was one of the support legs and I called Wayfair and they ￼are sending a replacement piece.
