Ok, it comes in a single box, everything is well packaged and identified, it takes very little time to assemble it, it is good to have your own tools so your hands dont hurt with the little key it comes with to assemble this bed.  It doesnt look very robust but once assembled it gets better.  Its for my 5 year old daughter so I think she will be fine for a few years.  the color if it is going to be a challenge to keep clean in a childrens room, next time I would definitely choose a darker color.  The drawers are not very well designed since they are free and on a carpet floor it takes about 5 seconds to make them close properly.  Its not the most luxurious option but it does the job.
