I had read the reviews and had to smile. When I set up the slatted frame - fortunately with male support - I really had to laugh. So basically I'm after building very pleased with the slatted frame, but it's true, then you need a strong hand, the manual is somewhat short and sweet and small, and a part was delivered wrong - this was, however, sent the next day immediately and was not an important part. Put it this way, I had my fun while building and am very satisfied.
