Arrived in 2 days undamaged, 2 boxes. Good good colorfinish, sturdy, easily assembled.  Bad (reason for 3 stars) Mattress slats need to be a max of 2.5 apart or a box spring should be used.  A box spring is not safe to use on this bed on top or bottom. These slats are 11.25 apart. I needed to purchase 5, 8 pieces of wood and cut them down to place them on both beds between the provided slats to make a suitable bed. 5-10 more in materials could make this a compete 5 star bed.
