I am writing a review even though this particular item is a different style from the one I purchased (which is no longer available), because I really love the and Trundle. I didnt want to place another bed and extra mattress in the guest room along with the existing Queen bed for when the grandkids stay, and I had reached the end of my patience with leaking air mattresses. This set/up works out beautifully. The bed was securely packaged and no pieces were missing. In fact, I received an extra bed slat and a couple extra snaps. It was very simple to put together, and the instructions were very clear (there is one error mis/identifying a piece, but it was easily figured out). The instructions advise a two/person assembly team, and estimates 1/1/2 hours to put the bed and trundle together. I assembled the entire set/up on my own in l hr 45 min. The most difficult part was lugging the heavy box up three flights of stairs by myself. (If it matters, I am a 54 woman.) I vaccilated between this particular style and the one I purchased, but both are very similar, so I assume this version will be as easy to assemble and as sturdy as the Crisscross design I purchased. If asked, I would definitely recommend considering a product. Value for money.
Easy to assemble / quite sturdy for the grandkids
