I bought this for my 16year old.  I hope it lasts til he is well on his own.  Him and his younger brother helped me put it together in about 1.5 hours.  The frame feels very sturdy.  The drawers hook in to stay in place, which was a nice surprise.  But the drawers feel like they will be the first to break.  My son stores quite a bit under his bed and loves the drawers.  Overall, it was what he liked and looks great! We are very happy with it!
