The bed came in two days and was packaged exceptionally well.  It took me about 30 minutes to get it together.  The only blip was the  wrong instruction about which holes to put the screws in on the board with the 4 middle legs. It was easy enough to figure out but it might be a problem if this is the first bed like this someone is putting together.  I love the bed, the espresso is a good color and I must say it is quite sturdy and made of solid wood.  A definite LIKE for me.
