The bed comes from a Canadian company and I live in Southern Florida, so the shipment had to travel quite far. The box arrived beaten, crumpled, and practically in tatters so I was anticipating a damaged product. Fortunately, the parts are separated and packaged in such a way that there wasn't even a scratch!
Building it was surprisingly easy and didn't require any real muscular effort. I've assembled furniture from Target, Walmart, and K-Mart, and this was by far the best. Very user-friendly instructions. It came with a dark touch up marker in the event you scratch any of the wood.
Material is very nice quality with a rich color. The components all fit as promised. The drawers slide in and out nicely. The handles of the drawers look classy. While they don't have sharp edges, they are metal so if you bang into them, OUCH.
I had very low expectations due to the low price of this bed, but I was very pleasantly surprised.
P.S.---the bed does sit low to the floor, so you may wish to measure in your room ahead of time to see if you need a higher bed.
Excellent bed!
