I love the actual design of the bed. This is the first bed I’ve purchase that did not require a box spring...one less thing to buy! It was a bit difficult to screw in the slats were the holes weren’t pre drilled. Although the packaging arrived wet and torn, I did not notice any immediate damage to the product. I haven’t slept in the bed yet however, I’m super excited too after just the aesthetics. I would recommend purchasing this item and having an extra pair of hands to assist with the assembly! God Bless!
