We really love the design and look of this bed.  It wasn't hard to put together and it's very sturdy too.  The only complaint we have with it is that we thought it would be a little bigger than the crib she is growing out of.  This bed takes the exact same size of mattress as a crib, so our child won't be able to be in it for very long at all.  Other than that it's a nice bed and for the price it's a great value too.  Overall we are happy with it, just wish it was a little bit bigger.
