Cute bed but make sure you have all the parts first
Its cute and my daughter loves finally having her own bed, however, there are supposed to be 20 wooden slats to scew into both the trundle and the bed that offer support for the mattress and I recieved only 8. Very disappointed in that but I contacted them via email and on and they are going to mail them asap.
I also recommend that when you use the small wooden corks, you put them on the inside piece youre sliding into another and make sure you push them in well. If not youll strip the wood and not be able to screw it in.
Also, I saw another persons review about the wood cracking when they screwed everything in. It says right on it, no power tools. Sometimes hand tightening is painful and hard, but if you use a drill you WILL over tighten and crack the wood.
It took me by myself almost 3 hours to assemble it and my husband helped about 20 minutes.
Its time consuming and there were a few scratches but my girl will surely scratch it too so im not worried about that.
I think reinforcing it with additional angle brackets might not be a bad idea but if youre not up for that it should be fine. Great customer service
