We bought this set for my daughter's room along with an extra nightstand. It requires approximately 1.5 hours to put together if you do it alone. I honestly wasn't expecting a whole lot for the price, but this is a very nice set. Everything was packaged very nicely (as my husband said, there's no way anything could get damaged with the amount of packaging!). The drawers glide smoothly. The finish looks hand-painted, almost like a piece of refinished furniture. The color is off white, but not too yellow (in fact, it makes our off white trim look a little dingy).
For negatives, the bed requires a boxspring which I didn't realize. It would work better with a thicker mattress (maybe 9"?) because there is a large space between the headboard and the mattress (we have a 7" mattress and 5" boxspring). There is not a whole lot of storage in the chest, but it will work for a toddler. Also, there is a slight paint smell for the first couple of days after you take it out of the boxes (but luckily it dissipates after that).
