Purchased on a Monday and it arrived Friday the same week. My ten year old and I put it together ourselves, very easy and straightforward instructions. He loves the secret doors behind the trundle and all of the space to store his stuff on the bookcase and drawers. All of the panels and pieces sturdy real wood with no pressed sawdust and glue business. Very happy with this purchase and love that it will be a bedroom mainstay for many years to come!
