Best bed we have ever bought for our kids! I ordered a similar one from a furniture store years ago and while the setup was much simpler, you cannot beat the amount of storage in this bed! We ended up being able to get rid of an entire dresser due to the size of the drawers in this bed! Assembly wasn't difficult, took me (34 yr old woman) about 4-5 hours and a good portion of that was spent trying to get the boxes up the stairs!
