Don't put together yourself!  Took 2 adults and 1 hour, due to the bolts having to set in the hole exactly straight!!!  But it is clearly beautiful.  Wood doesn't appear cheap and it's quite heavy but on casters so moves well.  Haven't tried to collapse it but doesn't look too challenging.  All 3 of my kids slept in a portacrib til they were each 3 years old, so it grows with them (3 different levels of height).  Unfortunately I loaned out our old one and never got it back.  Now that I have my 1st grandbaby coming next week, I had to have another one!  This one is perfect.  The cherry finish is not too red and a nice finish.  HAPPY!

Pros: well made, will last many children
Cons: frustrating to put together- takes 2 adults
