Surprising this bed comes in one box and is easy to assemble. Was able to put it together in under 45 minutes with a friend. Now when you receive the package, you'll really wonder how it fit in one box, but it becomes apparent quickly. You can see that the frame of the bed, where the mattress is actually comes as 2 pieces. The "side rails" you might think of them. Personally, I find this distracts from the look of the bed slightly, but not too much when considering the price.

It is a stable bed, doesn't make creaking noises you might hear from cheap beds and the quality of the fabric is nice. Most friends that see it think it looks quite classy, so for about $200 we're very happy with it.
