The bed is much smaller than it appears in the pictures.  The natural stain option is also slightly lighter in color than pictured.  Those things being said, the bed feels pretty sturdy being that it is made from solid pine.  

It took my husband around 90 minutes to put it together.  The bottom drawer is maybe slightly warped and doesn't sit completely straight on the track.  It is still usable, but only suitable for light items such as sheets and maybe a light blanket.  Our daughter loves the bed and overall we are happy with the purchase for the price.
