Putting this bed together was a bit time consuming given theres not a single preassembled element (except for the mattress slats) but the manual with assembly steps was very clear, all parts/nails/screws present and clearly marked, and the overall quality of the materials was very good. Imagine a wooden Lego set on steroids / tons of fun for people loving DIY projects.
The assembled bed is really nice. All parts fit perfectly, finished and painted with no noticed flaws. What we liked was that the book shelf and the chest of drawers are not integrated into the frame and can be placed somewhere else in the room for a complete bedroom look. If you prefer to have more compact layout just place them like in picture above.
Desk glides in and out smoothly, and we have a medium thick carpet, so the little wheels are coping.
The only little weak point we have noticed so far (after 1 week of use) is that the top step of the ladder started looking worn already with paint peeling off. Given that it will be the high use surface it might be necessary to enforce it with some sort of padding/tape.
All in all very happy with the purchase and price/quality ratio cant praise it enough!
nice sturdy bed with extras
