The Monarch Hill Ivy Toddler Bed was easy to assemble, seems sturdy, and very cute.  The stickers which were located on the headboard and footboard are another story.  It took us an hour to an hour and an half to remove them and all of the adhesive.  We actually put a few scratches on the bed in the process.  A product like a vinyl cling (or something along that line) would be a better option.
