Cute bed, terrible to put together, decently sturdy
Ordered this bed for my daughter, she loves the colors and how bright it is.
Here are the issues I experienced while putting this bed together:
1) While unboxing and verifying that all the pieces were included before getting started, it appears that 4 bolts are missing which sent me on a wild goose chase. It turns out those bolts are already screwed into the headboard and foot of the bed.
2) Some of the holes for putting in bolts and dowels were not pre/drilled
3) When mounting the middle support to the side rails of the bed, the holes were too deep in the rails and I was unable to use both the washer and the lock washer when screwing the bolt in as instructed.
Once the bed is put together, keep in mind that the rails are two separate pieces held together by a rail in the middle. When picking the bed up to move it, the pieces will flex in the middle. I laid on the bed for a while and it seemed pretty sturdy though. More than sturdy enough for the size of kid who would be using this bed.
All in all, im still happy with the purchase but the assembly leaves so much to be desired
