    Thanks for showing exactly how you did this, so many other vids never show the entire process. And that tip about the drill bit size with the screw was perfect!

    You did an amazing job AND an amazing job showing us. I will be using this as a basis for my studio apartment, taking my bed into the kitchen and out of the living room!

    Is there a reason why you didn’t use 4*2 Kallax Storage units instead of two 2*2s?

    Hi. I was wondering if you could do a update video on how the bed looks after a few months because I really want to know if this bed is sturdy enough

    Hi, I was wondering if in the space under the bed there would be enough space for a single mattress?

    Is it uncomfortable to sleep on since it’s wood and not a box spring?
