Think of a IKEA product with a little less sophistication in finish and instructions. It takes a long time to assemble the product. It took me around 6 hours with a lunch break. I would suggest that you first take all pieces out of box 1, label with a post it and then for box 2 and do the same and then start off. That way it reduces the stress of finding pieces. All pieces are marked with a dark stamp on one side for most part. In some places the marking is a bit off or light and you need to do some logical deduction based on the pictures. But at the end of it, there were no pieces missing and they all went well together. It is good to have a drill to make some missing holes. the biggest flaw I noticed was that one of the corners of the top bunk had a slightly smaller hole depth and hence sitting in a unusual way while being placed on top of the bottom part of the bunk. But a bit of drill work solved the issue. not a biggie. For most part, it is a well made set and looks good when assembled. More updates once I get the mattresses and start using it for my kids.
Tough to assemble, but the result looks good
