Beautiful bed! It took my husband several hours to put together. It is a bit higher than I thought it would be but doesnt seem yo be an issue for my 4 year old. Well worth the time it took to assemble. It seems very sturdy and my daughter is very excited about her new big girl bed. Perfect for the small space of her room and we are creating a reading nook underneath. No isses with shipping and delivery was quick. Highly recommend.
