The bed was simple to put together and only took about 30 minutes. I LOVE the color and look once it is put together! Great bed for our three 1/2 year old. There are two different heights for a box spring & mattress or for mattress only. The bed has three slats to hold the mattress up. Keep this in mind, we will need additional slats for our child's memory foam mattress. 

There was a small crack in one of the pieces, but it's on the back and I didn't want to mess with returning the item.
