Had to anxiously wait for this crib to be available to order...and just in time for our arrival! My father-in-law and sister-in-law helped out by putting ours together after thanksgiving dinner. Such champs, only took about 1.5 hours to unpack, organize parts, and sister-in-law to direct the action and get it put together. It looks great! Has an elegant and simple design, major bonus to it being a convertible bed!
