This is a beautiful unit!  The finish looks good quality and having 2 bookshelves makes this a valuable addition to our guest roomoffice space.  It DID take an entire Saturday and required two people to assemble  it.  To balance the room, I put one bookcase next to the bed on one wall and the other directly opposite from it in the corner next to the computer.  We secured the unit to the wall for safety.  I love this easy to drop-down bed and its overall appearance plus function!
