I was a little discouraged when I saw how small the package was and wondered how it could possibly be sturdy when it was so light. Once opened, I was truly impressed. This may be the most intuitive and easy to construct furniture I've ever got. I could have done it without the directions, if which there were only 6 steps. It also came with not only a standard L shaped allen wrench, but also a mini ratchet, which I will definitely be holding on to for other furniture projects. It also had extra screws, just in case. When does that ever happen? The constructed frame is super sturdy and doesn't wiggke even a little with a full weight adult male on it.
