Easy to assemble bed but I had to buy two sets of 4 feet to my mattress because the dimensions do not quite match. If using the battens supplied with the bed as a base, you will not have this problem, though I have not tested myself. The faux leather creaks with tick box springs, problem I solved by a fitted sheet to bed base. But at that price for a bed in this dimension. .. Happy with my purchase anyway! Once installed, the bed makes good in the room.
