We purchased this bed for our ten year old son.  We ordered the twin bed with trundle in early August and received it a week and a half later. It was shipped earlier than originally planned.   I was leery of ordering a bed over the internet, however I was very happy at the quality of the bed when it arrived.  I was able to assemble most of the bed myself in about an hour.  My husband finished it from the slats and trundle assembly on.  It was very easy to follow the directions and get it put together.  The headboard doesn't have holes to run the cords through, which would be really nice to have for the alarm clock and Ipod cords.  The one side of the bed is open underneath which exposes the trundle bed, but for us was not a huge deal.  I didn't want to push it against the wall so we have an extra wide comforter on the bed that covers up the exposed side. My son loves his new bed and his older brother is wanting us to buy him one as well.  Overall, we are pleased with our purchase.
