Little brother is as excited as big sissy. Daughter has been over the moon since she came home to it all set and ready. Theres some space around the new twin mattress, and its not as sturdy as I hoped for the price. Came with some dings and mishaps from manufacturer but not anything worthy of the hassle to send it back. Timed the assembly. 45 minutes to unpack everything and label the hardware to make the assembly easier, and that was some sturdy hardware it came with. 2 hours to put it together (two 28yr old women with a couple glasses of wine) with double checking instructions and pieces, no rush so not sure what everyone else was doing. Taller than I anticipated but still able to lift my daughter into it when she falls asleep on the couch and Im 56. Both me and my fiance have been up in the bed (seperately) and its doesnt creak or groan and were not small. Looking at the pieces some didnt strike me as solid wood but thats a personal observation that could be wrong.
CHECK the sellers site for sales: could have saved 200$ but I wasnt sending it back the box weighed 106lbs. Which is also why it could be solid wood prieces.
Not as hard as expected!
