We have wanted a Murphy bed for a long time.  This arrived in about 4 weeks as expected.  It took us about 5 hours to assemble.  The instructions and the labels on the pieces could be better marked, such as top, bottom, etc.  I knew the clearance on the ceiling would be tight, but it was tighter than expected when raising it to the wall.  The last piece was difficult to put on the top.  I think this piece should have been assembled prior to raising.  Overall, very happy with the purchase.
