We purchased the Twin XL bed for my son’s room to replace his Queen size bed.  I’m pretty sure it took us approximately 3 hours to put the bed together, and we both decided we won’t apply for jobs anywhere doing that for a living!  The bed was packaged very well with a lot of styrofoam and plastic wrap to protect it during the delivery process.  It is VERY sturdy and made from SOLID WOOD, which I appreciate.
