You get what you pay for. It came in a big (and heavy!) box, but was basically already assembled. All I had to do was screw on the legs. So any reviewer who complains about assembly is either dumb or dumber. Piece of cake! I added a throw and a couple of pillows for pazazz and sat it against a chevron print wall. It works aesthetically, but uh that's about it. I would never expect anyone to actually sleep on it... one because it's so small (I'm 5'4" and my legs would hang off) and two because my carpeted floor is more comfortable. I did buy this hoping guests could sleep on it, but I like having friends and I'd surely lose a few after a night on this thing. Thank goodness I still have air mats.
