Delivery was a bit of a drag, but it eventually arrived. The delivery team mixed up our package and insisted it was the right one, but it wasn't. The box clearly said it was another bed and color was cherry red, we ordered this Platform Bed in white! Turns out I was right. Aside from that, assembling the bed took about an hour with the 2 of us. No box spring needed. I was a little disappointed there was a slight scuff on the top left of the headboard, but overall looks great and has help up so far (3 months later). I would recommend this bed and would purchase it again.
