Detailed and accurate instructions! Just make sure you follow all of the precise instructions. With excellent customer service to ask questions. Able to cut the pieces and assemble within two day and install in a day. Feels very sturdy and looks great!!I hope you have the ability to follow difficult and lengthy instructions. You will need wood working skills. Be mechanically inclined. Lots of patience. Strong. We’ve built many things: house, room additions, covered porch, deck, furniture etc and found this to be very stressful. You will need ALOT of space to build your bed. This is a two man/woman job. We are finally to point where are ready to hang/install the bed frame. Will update on how that goes and how well it works: Stability and safety and so forth. Pray for us!I purchased a horizontal murphy bed kit.The product seems like it is well built, but I am having trouble even starting the project. The cut sheet claims that a big box store can make the cuts, but this is not true. They cannot (due to safety reasons) make cuts under 12". There are several cuts on the sheet that are under 12". They also won't guarantee sizing, so even if they make your cuts, you'll have to have the tools to fine tune them anyway.I'm now contemplating buying my own saw or paying a handyman to make these cuts for me. I'm still not sure if this is going to work out. I really wish they would have made this clear in the FAQ or online instructions.I'll also say that I have already spent over $100 on screws, glue, sandpaper, and other materials before buying my first piece of wood. It is clear to me now that this project is going to go over $600 once everything is purchased and put together. If you can find a pre-built bed for a similar price, you may just want to go that direction.The kit comes with all the hardware to mount the parts. You will need to determine how you want to attach it to the wall, which is fine since every project is a little or a lot different. The instructions include plans for a basic cabinet as a cover which makes it easy to adapt to your project's unique style.Sadly, a few plans fell through and we had to return it. Although we had already opened it, the seller honored the terms of the return hassle-free. Once we are back in a position where this is a viable project, we will order this kit from this seller again.you need to have some skills but the directions are very good. the cost of wood was a little more expensive then I was anticipating, but over all very reasonable and great dealWe are thrilled with the product! The instructional manuals were easy to use. You do need some basic wood working skills and equipment. The only thing we noticed is the metal pieces that are used to hold down the mattress strap are not listed in the “need to purchase” list. Not a huge deal though.Item came as promised in new condition and I will assemble it in a couple of months in Florida. It looks as shown.We purchased this kit quite a while ago and have finally completed our Murphy Bed. This kit has everything you need to make this bed. Perfect for our spare room. Leaves the room open and tidy for everyday, and provides a large Queen Sized bed for guests. Very happy with this purchase.
