This was no joke to put together! We are very handy individuals, but we still struggled with hardware that wasn’t labeled and diagrams that weren’t very clear. We had major issues with shipping. This comes in 3 VERY heavy boxes, and thus a few parts were damaged in transit. We also were missing one of the boxes (note this ships in 3 boxes). Both Wayfair and South Shore were easy to work with to get pieces replaced and the missing box reshipped. However, this took more than 3 weeks until we had all of the pieces for our son’s bed. In terms of quality, we are pleased. It has only been a few days that he is sleeping on it, but he loves it. It holds so much stuff and is a true space saver.
