I bought the black version of this daybed and it's a very nice looking daybed in our spare room. The box arrived damaged, but all the parts within were unharmed. It took me a little under an hour to completely assemble it as it has many parts, but assembly was simple. It's very sturdy and larger than I pictured it but it fits really well in the room. Together with a bunch of throwpillows it makes for a great hangout couch when not in use as a bed. The metal is sturdy and the quality feels very good.
