I purchased two twins in gray and each bed came in two boxes. The instructions were very good and easy to follow. The bed can be made by one person but helps to have two people. the material was nicely packaged. I agree with the other reviewer that just to make it more sturdier the middle metal bar+feet could be made more broader. I bought this bed after going a lot of search and after readying all good reviews, and I am glad to say it as well that I recommend this bed.
