We bought this bed for my 4 year old daughters big girl room.  She loves it, and so do we.  It is perfect in her smaller than average room with the drawers for storage underneath.  We also purchased the bookcase headboard and nightstand to match.  It couldn't be cuter.  My husband spent a few hours assembling all three items, and didn't think it was too difficult.  The bed is HEAVY though, so you'll want to assemble it in the room it will stay in for sure.  The drawers under the bed do not seem very heavy duty, but should work just fine for clothes and light toys.  For the price, this is an unbeatable deal.  We're hoping it will last many years to come.
