Bed came in 5 Boxes that were not too heavy. Bed was easily assembled by two people and minimal tools were needed. The bed looks great in my room and I received great service and suggestions from an associate on the phone who suggested this bed to match my dresser.  My only complaints are that it only came with two drawers for the one side and the other side is bare.  I was under the impression that both sides had drawers (4 total) since I ordered a full. It also came with a small crack in the headboard.  It looks like a cosmetic flaw and will most likely be hidden by pillows. Overall great bed and easy assembly.
