We recently decided to upgrade my 4 year old to a real twin sized bed. I love the look of natural wood and thought this looked so fun and versatile.
Stupidly I decided to put this together on a Sunday while both my kids were jacked up on sugar and annoying me...this was my first fatal error. I assumed this would be easy to put together like ikea, which I excel at. This was NOT LIKE IKEA. The instructions are blurry and the diagrams are not very detailed at all.
The breakdown of hardware is also confusing. It shows 3 different types of bolts plus screws. The problem is, the visual of all 3 bolts are exactly the same. Each bolt type has a corresponding amount. There were only 2 different types of bolts...so I just had to cross my fingers and hope I used the right ones in the right places.
The diagram of the wood pieces are labeled in an image as the bed is setup if that makes sense, so it's hard to tell which piece is which on the diagram, again, trial and error here.
This should have took me less than 30 minutes to setup but it took over 2. Good thing it turned out great, because otherwise would have been a royal waste of time.
Quality is a 5, instructions are 1
