I got this for my daughter who honestly loves it! Her most favored bed by far, and she’s had several. Very picky girl. As for putting together, I was intimidated but as I followed the instructions it became very easy. I recommend reading thru everything first and making sure you know what piece goes with what as ur reading thru. That may help to avoid a few mishaps as it did for me. Also, I did everything myself. I’m a 50yr old femal so if I could do it, most anyone else could too. Lol
