Hodedah Storage Bed with Bookcase Headboard, Beech

This is a very sturdy bed. Although, this damn thing took us more than 8+ hours and two day's to assemble. We started at noon Saturday and finished the bed frame and drawers by 8 pm. Decided to tackle the head board Sunday. Mind you there were two adults working on it. The instructions are worthless. Just a bunch of arrows going this way and that apparently trying to show something but shows nothing. The time stated of 120 minutes is absurd! Directions have you pre assemble all parts then put together. After all was done we did have a beautiful bed for our daughter, but my goodness it was a chore, and a literal pain in the butt and back! Update: it is now 3 weeks later and just assembled the headboard. The directions are pure crap! This bed assembly will take every ounce of patience and sanity from you. If you don’t already have a reservation at the loony bin, make one! By the time you have figured out how to put this damn thing together, just to find out have to completely rearrange the thing to fit the bedroom wall it’s wanted on. You will Loose your F***** mind. I’m over it and the whole damn thing. Ready to smash it to pieces and send the F***** back!

I ordered 2 of these hodedah captain twin beds in black. Both arrived reasonably quick and in good condition. Each bed comes in 2x fairly large, heavy boxes. the boxes got a little torn up, but out of all 4 boxes I received I only found 1 minor scuff on a single panel. It was minor enough to not even worry with. The packaging seems sufficient nonetheless. I was worried about all the comments complaining about the poor instructions, and 8 hour build time. Either they have made improvements, or I am handier than most because I found the instructions to be fine. There are a lot of parts, but it is manageable. I built both beds in roughly 6 hours total. I completed the first bed in about 4 hours. I had to move the 2 end rails for the drawers, but that was the only issue. It took just a few minutes to move the 2 rails 1 hole over. I saw a few comments stating the holes for the rails were not there at all. That wasn't the case for me. I just chose the wrong holes on the rail itself. That was my mistake regardless. After that, I jumped right into building the 2nd bed. It only took roughly 2 hours since I had a feel for it, and didn't have to study the instructions as much. Overall, the beds seem sturdy. For the price you are obviously getting all composite wood, but it has a nice look to it. Each drawer even have a hefty center support that makes them feel really solid. I chose not to screw in the mattress support boards, so we can access the hidden storage area behind the drawers. It's not easy to access, but it is a large area worth utilizing. My boys love the beds, and they have already decorated their headboards, and made charging stations. I'm happy with the purchase!

This bed is nice. It’s really cute however it took forever putting it together the instructions could use a little work for more clarity. You will get splinters assembling this bed edges are sharp once put together but not dangerous. PUT IT TOGETHER IN THE SPOT OR CLOSE TO THE SPOT WHERE IT WILL BE BECAUSE IT IS HEAVVVVVVVYYYYYYY AS HELL ONCE ITS DONE. pushing it is almost impossible. The drawers are a little off I’m not sure if it’s cut wrong or assemblers error (myself and my boyfriend lol) also you may want to get some type of grip for mattress because it can slip around because the mattress doesn’t sit low inside bed it literally sits on top of boards. Would have given it a 5 star review if the drawers were even and didn’t get off track when pulling to open. All in all my daughter loves it.

Trying to build this was ridiculous. I wish it just screwed together but instead you have to pray these little plastic pegs align like the stars and hold the boards together. After that you have one chance not to screw everything up because the wood is so soft. Found myself hammering things together with my own screws. Only buy this if you have a team of Astro physisists to help. Booooo

First of all - a ton of hardware that doesn't fit correctly, Boards warped (Particle pressed boards) - The main headboard had a crack down one side where the pre-drilled holes were ensuring the wood would split if anything was used on it. The directions are easy if you are good at word problems and not all the pieces are labeled. The ONLY reason it has a 3 is once we ditched the hardware and used screws it was sturdy and the drawers were reasonably workable. I paid for a headboard though and do not have one due to the main piece described above and smaller slats breaking in half when the thing fell over while we were trying to get the included hardware to work ( Prior to ditching for the screws) My roommate has a bed like this as well- he is ditching the directions, the hard ware and straight out building the thing. We're hoping his turns out better and has no warped boards when we open it. The only reason mine wasn't returned is I needed a bed and it was too expensive and convoluted to return. ( two large boxes and heavy )

I did my research before buying this bed for my daughter and I was a bit hesitant about assembling the bed after reading other reviews. My husband and I followed the directions and it worked out well. It’s very overwhelming when you first see all the different pieces, but if you follow step by step you will be successful in the end! The quality is pretty good too for the price. It’s nice to have the bookshelf and drawers. It took about 4 hours to assemble!

The bed itself is good. It is exactly what I expected for the price point. I bought two beds, and other than a few minor dings they arrived mostly unscathed. The foot-board of one of the beds arrived with a large piece of the corner broken off. I'm assuming it must have been dropped on its corner during shipping. The seller responded promptly and ordered a replacement part for me with no hesitation. The replacement part arrived very securely wrapped as to avoid any dings, so kudos to them!

I didn’t like the way the bed was handled in shipping. The seller was very responsive to questions and concerns. The bed overall could be a very well built and sturdy bed.
