Price was great. Putting it together was a hassle and required two people. The directions are about equivalent to IKEA, except with fewer pictures but adding some very concise words. Pieces were all labeled so once we figured out what to do it went OK. Again, you will certainly need two people unless you personally have eight arms. The main bummer is that a few of the finished wood pieces had their veneers crushed/crinkled/cracked during shipping, and unfortunately those happen to be on the top rail where the damage would be more easily seen. Looks nice from a distance though. I intend to get the damaged pieces covered up with some cushy pillows so it can just be our little secret. Overall, I'd call it a decent daybed for the price.
