We have not yet received the nightstand as it is out of stock but the bed and dresser arrived. We hired someone to build them for us. The set is really attractive. The headboard is quite tall and since the bed requires a box spring, the mattress is tall as well. Unfortunately, the headboard and the footboard are both chipped and we will have to contact customer service (an issue with the whole shipping furniture). The dresser is surprisingly sturdy and the drawers glide easily. The only issue with the dresser is that the drawers are not deep and don't hold as much as we would have liked.
