I am VERY pleased with this bed, and our experience ordering from Great Offer Stock. This is a heavy, solid bed, but fairly easy to assemble. Not difficult at all with two people. I assembled most of it myself; it went much faster when my husband jumped in to help. The finish is beautiful - perhaps darker than it appears in photos, but I love it. Drawers are sturdy, operate smoothly and appear to have cedar wood bottoms. Beautiful, rustic pewter look drawer handles. I am so pleased. This was half the price of similar solid wood beds I looked at locally and it's just as nice. We couldn't be be happier! (
NO BOX SPRING required for the storage bed. It's a sturdy slat platform.) It took a few weeks for delivery, but that was expected. Their order tracking system is excellent and the shipping service was prompt and professional.
