Shipped quickly and arrived several days sooner than expected in 3 boxes. Assembly took about 3 hours with two people involved: one primarily reading and directing the assembly process but also with hands on, and one primarily assembling. It came together nicely and is very stable. With my double/thick pillow/top mattress, I am sleeping well on this bed. No box/spring required! It is also quite high, which I like, making it easy for me (a big guy) to get out of bed. in the morning. This bed has two large drawers, as expected. I assumed that I would receive a wood finish panel to fill in the spaces where there are no drawers, but that is not the case. As such, there are are 2 large gaps underneath which looks weird and allows for dust to gather underneath. Had I known this, I would have ordered a bed with 4 drawers, even though I dont need them, just to make it look complete. That is my only complaint. I will contact the manufacturer to see if I can order 2 more matching drawers separately. Otherwise, I can defintely recommend this platform bed in terms of quality and practicality at a budget price, at a time when I am having to be budget/conscious.
Satisfied for the most part
