I chose the atomic red color for my study/guest bedroom.  The color is more orange than red.  The assembly took over an hour with two people.  There are many screws to sort through.  Directions are easy to follow but it will require patience to get the pieces and assemble.  Unzip the headboard packaging for the rest of the bed.  The headboard is shorter than expected but in a small 9x11 room, it is the perfect size and does not overwhelm the space.  Once assembled, the bed is very sturdy.  This was a great bargain for the style and price.
