Im very happy with the bed, its pretty straightforward to assemble, clear instructions. Easier to do it with two people. It shipped in two boxes, one with the bed frame and one with the four drawers. Its got a good sturdy support structure across the middle with a metal frame and plenty of wooden slats that are secured into the frame. The drawers have a latch to keep it secured but if you just push the drawers in without latching it looks the same from the outside regardless, so you dont have to keep latching and unlatching.
