I bought this bed for my 11 year old daughter. I wanted something that she would go nuts for, but that would be equally pleasing for the adult friends and family who will occupy her room when visiting our home. The bed arrived via FedEx in two very heavy boxes that I couldn't move on my own.  By taking each piece out individually, we were able to get them up the stairs and start the assembly process.  It took the two of us close to three hours, but the instructions were clear and everything went together nicely. It was challenging to maneuver the large metal frame into place, but we got it done. The bed is stunning and sturdy and we couldn't be happier.  The price was great too!

Pros: Looks gorgeous and feels very sturdy
Cons: Assembly is a fairly big job
