Comes assembled, which is a huge plus. Sturdy and solid. The drawers glide nicely - they don't pull out super far, but I do like the fact that if you lift slightly up on the drawer, you get an extra inch or two of it pulling out further. This isn't real wood - it's MDF covered in a printed laminate coating, which was fine for me. However, every single piece of this collection has a printing defect that looks like a scratch. It's definitely an error in printing and not because it's trying to look like real wood. See attached photos. It's the exact same "scratch" shape on every piece I've ordered - the headboard, 5 drawer dresser, and 7 drawer dresser. Wayfair has been amazing in helping me get it sorted out - but look closely at yours, i'm willing to bet yours has it, too.  I'm still giving it 4 stars b/c it is sturdy, looks nice and am hoping the replacement one I get is free of defects.
