There are many pieces and parts to this bed. Everything arrived in one large box and nothing was damaged. Putting together this bed is definitely a two person project. It’s not a complicated job, it just goes smoother with two people to hold together parts. It is a modern looking bed with a simple design that will work with any decor. I only gave 4 stars because of how much the bed moves when getting inout. It will be interesting to see how durable it is with everyday use.
