These beds are great! First, the seller contacted me before I even was notified by that they had shipped. They wanted to let me know it was two separate tracking numbers and that they could possibly arrive on different days. Second, the delivery date was set to be between April 30-May 4. Much to my surprise I found them waiting at my door today (April 28th).They arrived with no damage and nicely packed. I quickly began assembling these for my girls. For anyone who struggled with the corners matching up, I had a similar issue but knew I could easily attach the corner piece first and then get it back into the side rail support. It worked out perfectly. Yes it does take some time, but then again you are building a bed. This was basically the same build I have for my king sized bed frame, so after the first time following instructions I breezed through the second. Save yourself some time and have a ratcheting Allen wrench, and a wrench would work a lot better than the little tool that comes with the kit when you need to use the nuts. I assembled these alone in just under 2 1/2 hours. As far as the color goes, they are even better in person. The picture doesnt do the teal justice, as it appears darker. This bed is also much sturdier than I had originally expected. My own bed is not as sturdy and now Im considering getting another one of these for my room! I feel good about my girls sleeping on these. The adjustable headboard is nice and theres very little space between the bed and the base of the headboard with an 8 mattress. If you are looking at these , dont hesitate. Make the purchase, but save yourself some time with the suggestions I made!
