Homelegance Meyer 4956PU* Bi-Cast Vinyl Daybed with Trundle, Dark Brown

I purchased the daybed to replace a futon that was taking up a lot of room in my office/second bedroom. I needed something that didn't look like a bed, but I didn't have space for a pullout couch. The item finally arrived and it was very attractive, but takes a little time to assemble. I was able to do it just fine by myself, but two people will definitely speed up the process. Make sure you have an electric drill handy for the the wood mattress support area. As with any furniture assembly, do not tighten all the Alan key's at the same time or else nothing with align.

In regards to the backboard that the other commenter mentioned, I do not really feel the same way. An 8 inch mattress will cover that, and unless the daybed wasn't assembled properly, it's not a 2ft gap. It's more like 8-9 inches. See my pics in the product image area or here: I'm not sure how long they'll stay up. Oh yeah, don't forget to order both mattresses! I thought it came with at least one, oh well.

Tools needed:

Power drill with screw driver bit

Assembly time for 1 person:

1 hour max

We purchased this daybed for our teen daughter two months ago, and so far, she loves it. It's durable and attractive, however, I feel that the backboard is thin and shallow; this should have been a taller, solid piece so that there isn't a 2ft "opening" in the back of the bed (this of course is hidden by pillows in the picture). I would not recommend this bed for a small child because he/she could roll right under the backboard and onto the floor.
