This arrived quickly in one box.  Many pieces were dirty but I am hoping I can clean them up.  The headboard is mildly disfigured as you can see in the pictures, quality is not very good, fortunately I am able to cover most of the bed with a bedspread.  This material will get dirty and dusty so keep that in mind when choosing your color.  Black would probably look a lot better than the white.  Instructions were clear, but pay close attention or you will have pieces facing the wrong direction.  Once assembled and tightened, the bed is pretty sturdy.  I do like the shelf on the top of the lighted headboard.  If you are looking for an inexpensive guest bed, this will fit the bill.
