This bed is everything I hoped for and more! It is stunning! It was a bit stubborn to put together but between my hubby and I (and our kiddo supervising) we were able to do it relatively quickly. The storage underneath the bed is amazing.  It’s the perfect spot for Christmas presents. It shipped in two packages which arrived on separate days (shipped from different locations) and both arrived in perfect condition. They were heavy to lift alone but do able. Highly recommend the bed!
