The description matched the product. The blue-grey color is a little more grey then it looked on screen, but we are still happy with it. Installation took my brother an hour, but he is a mechanic. It probably would have taken me up to 2 as the instructions were clear. It did come in 3 separate boxes. The head and foot boards came in one box, slats in another, and the rails, long sides and ladder pieces in a third. They supply the allen key, but since the slats are screwed in, have a drill handy. 

Our kids love the bed, and it is very comfortable!

Pros: Great for the price.  Fast shipping. Simple instructions.
