Perfect size,  came in 3 boxes and took under an hour to assemble with the hep of my 8 year old daughter which included hauling up three flights of stairs.  No missing or damaged pieces.  very solid build but there weren't enough slats  for both the upper and lower bunks. went to homedpot and purchased some 3 x 1s to add more slats and an 8 x 1 cut to size to place on top so the mattress won't sag (about $8)  Kids love it!!
