My son's first "Big Boy" bed. It is very nice quality and sturdy. I purchased this in Merlot and it has a nice, rich finish. I will say that it is much larger in person (obviously, haha!) But that is just fine. They additional storage is helpful. It does require at least two people to assemble for the beginning of set up and alignment purposes but is a very easy and quick set up. Very happy with my purchase, well worth the price!
