We ordered this bunk bed, and it arrived really quickly, within 2 days of ordering it,  and in perfect condition.  The instructions were not written, but came with illustrations that were pretty clear.  It took my husband, who is very handy, 5 1/2 hours to put together.  I was his helper, handing him the necessary screws and tools necessary for him to do all the work!  The wood is very nice and very sturdy. The beds are very sturdy and have a lot of slats to make the mattresses very supportive.  The trundle was probably the easiest part to assemble.  We are looking forward to having our grandkids here to spend the night on long week-ends and vacations.  I highly recommend this bunkbed.
