Shipped quickly, excellent condition. It took my husband about 4 to 5 hours to put together, mostly alone.  He had one other person helping him for the last hour or so (and he also had a sick child to check on periodically during the entire process).  The bed looks nice together, feels solid, and the parts all work well and smoothly. The one thing you may not be able to tell from the picture is that the drawers do not (and are not meant to) sit flush inside or inline with the bed frame; when fully closed they are still sitting up against the outside of the frame, creating a small lip for the drawer. 

After two weeks we are still extremely happy with the bed!
