This is a pretty nice bed, and not too hard to assemble. I do wish it were a bit deeper, to accept our 15" mattress; the big mattress covers some of the shelves and makes the bed REALLY tall. It's all pine, so not super heavy, but also not super sturdy, so if we ever have to move it to another area of the room it's going to be tricky. Having the drawer units be pre-built was a nice touch.
