We bought this as a Christmas gift and waited to assemble closer to Christmas Day. The boards were fine, instructions good, but the fasteners were sub par. I spent an hour in the shop straightening bolts and fixing threads. Luckily I have the tools to do so. No extra hardware supplied. I feel like I should have inspected sooner.
We also took an extra step and added glue for each dowel. The bed is solid. Im sure periodically tightening bolts is in my future.
There should be a foldable plywood panel to lay across the mattress s, too. Thats not supplied so expect to buy n cut a panel to support the mattress of choice.
