Easy to assemble (per mechanic spouse in full disclosure) and the color looks nice in blue/gray room.  It is a bit rickety when 3 and 6 year olds go up and down but they love it.  The bottom stair drawer front is also fake and seems like a waste of space.  Overall, great value for the price.  Don’t forget to consider ceiling fan, we ended up disconnecting it as it was too close for comfort (in 12x14 room).
