Walker Edison Mid Century Modern Wood Spindle Daybed Headboard Footboard Bed Frame Bedroom, Twin, Walnut

Love it. Quite pretty. Assembly goes better with two people and an electric screwdriver. I started this by myself and without power tools. Was hoping to have it assembled before my husband came home. I got a good start, but it was slow going. The battery to my drill was missing, so I used the included allen wrench. The bolts are wood screw type and take quite a bit of hand strength to put in. None of the holes were miss drilled; however, I did have a piece or two in the wrong position and it appears they are not drilled correctly. Also, as mentioned it takes a bit of elbow grease to get the bolts in. I stopped the first day when my husband came home because the battery was not at home and my hand was tired. Next day with drill and correct bit it was much easier not to mention faster. It was easier with two people to align the longer pieces. It would have been difficult, not impossible, to complete on my own and without power tool. I used the drill as an electric screwdriver not to drill new holes. Directions say not to use power tools. Some of the slats were warped, but once screwed down they were flat. I think it looks nice. Assembly was more difficult than Ikea furniture, but no special skills or tools are required.

Solid wood bed!Yes, it does take some time and patience to assemble, as it comes in many pieces, but I’ve assembled 2 of these beds by myself without any issue. Just follow the directions carefully and don’t rush it. It will probably take a couple hours, but it’s worth it. Patience is key!I bought one for my son’s bedroom and loved it so much I purchased another for my daughter (even though I had to wait a few months until the bed was back in stock). It’s sturdy, sleek, modern, and for the price, you can’t beat it. I looked everywhere for other options, but this was the best one. We’ve had them for over a year now and they’ve held up great.The only downside for some buyers might be that you can’t put a trundle bed underneath because of the support pieces, but there is still ample storage underneath the bed.We purchased the caramel color bed and it’s the perfect amount of warmth. Highly recommend.

Good looking and sturdy daybed at the right price.Putting it together is a two person job. The tools they send are not efficient. We took the Allen wrench they sent and put it in a vice grip wrench to build most of of the bed. When it came to the support boards we used a drill with a clutch at the lowest speed. Space your boards and use a sharpie or a pencil to mark their position on the rail. You won’t see the marks the mattress covers them. The wood is hard try this trick my dad taught me he was a master carpenter. Take a bar of soap nothing fancy like Dove or Ivory or similar, rub the screws and get the soap in the threads this will make it easier to screw them in. Remember do not use a high speed on the drill or you risk splitting the wood. Be patient it is worth the work to put it together.

So, it's a pretty bed, it's just the size I was needing and I can't wait to actually test it. It overall gets a 3 out of 5 from me, solely because of its assembly.This is a bed that SHOULD only take at MOST 2 hours to build. So far I've clocked 4 1/2 hours, and still have to do the most tedious part, the last step, which is putting 3 screws into every single slat. I don't know if I got one that just happened to have bad manufacturing, but this frames holes are NOT predrilled enough, if at all for some screws. Let me be clear, I am not frail, I do not have weak wrists, in fact Ive always had stronger hands then most people around me and I have the added benifit of being ambidextrous if either of my hands get tired... and my wrists HURT building this. The tools it gives you do nothing and even with proper tools (my own), I have 3 blisters on my hands from having to force the screwdriver to get the bolts anywhere near where it should be.The instructions are clear and simple to follow this is not an issue with instructions or diagrams. It tells you to not use power tools on this, I'd say do it anyways if you can do it carefully. (I do not own any)I cannot imagine anyone who had previously broken a wrist, have arthritis, or cannot do repetitive movement ever completing this bed. Along with several places where I can tell this was scratched or dinged in factory (those don't bother me) and the really cruddy too small predrilled or not at all drilled holes, I honestly wouldn't suggest this bed... unless you're stubborn and a bit of a masochist for the "vibe" like me.I'll update on sturdiness ect. when I actually finish building it. I am just blown away with how it's taken for a simple project because of how much I've had to fight it.Edit: So, I modified a simple element to make it much sturdier, which as moving the support price to the middle instead of at the frount. It's easily supported 3 of my friends, and separately my larger brother with no issue. It's pretty sturdy, on carpet, on wood or tile I can see this scooting around. As well as if you followed the original instructions with the support forward, it be a lot more sketchy. All in all, I lost the ability to use my wrists for 2 days, it exhausted me so much I had to split the building into 3 days, about 4-2 hours a day. I also had the issue of the screws breaking as I put them in.After having it a few days, I'm honestly taking away a star. As cute as it is, and how much I enjoy it, I cannot look at it without feeling the ghost aches of putting it together. It was much more of a hassle then it was worth. I feel like that if taking it back after I started putting together was an option for me, I would have taken it. But it's done, and it's what I wanted, but I can't enjoy it without feeling the negative. Agian, do not attempt if you have ANY difficulty using your hands, or have injured them in the past. Yes, the assembly was THAT ridiculous.From 3/5 to 2/5

While it was a pain to assemble, it looks great and seems to be plenty sturdy enough.
