(More customer reviews)First of all, the bed arrived within the expected dates, and is a great price for what you get...but seemed to take a long time as we are collecting our belongings again after a fire. The package was two boxes: the headboard/bookshelves and the bed. The headboard was probably the advertised weight of the product. The second box was far too heavy (AT LEAST 100 LBS) for anyone, much less a woman to heave upstairs...luckily a nice neighbor was available to assist :). Then the assembly was very difficult as the directions were not extremely clear and I had to deassemble and reassemble a couple parts. On the upside the hardware was complete and even some spare! It definitely needs two people to assemble. It took me more than 9 non-consecutive hours to assemble and the drawers are not at all smooth and do not fit the bedframe well... and I was meticulous in the assembly.
Overall it looks nice, like the picture but there were no holes drilled in the bedframe to attach the headboard so I will have to do that part on my own almost blindly as I will have to measure and guess where to drill them. I hope that it is sturdy enough to withstand my very energetic 5 year old as his first big boy bed and I am certain it will be a jumping bed when he can get away with it! I honestly feel I should have paid a hundred or so more for a preassembled bed and had it delivered and set up but I was trying to be a wise and handy consumer. I also feel the material quality was heavy but lacking quality, it split and chipped easily. It does include a correction marker to cover. It has put me off full assembly furniture for a while! Good luck to all of you...
