Instructions are just pictures so use your common sense when assembling. 

Some hardware looked to be missing in the package (bubbles where screws should be but no hardware) but in the end everything was accounted for. 

Stability wise, it is good but because there is no edges on the base, your mattress does slide a bit if you aren't careful. 

Bought for my sister, who loves the look/style of it and reviewed after a week of use.
