The king version of this bed arrived in 4 boxes via FEDEX. The delivery man was very helpful, as our front porch is 7 steps up from the sidewalk. He slid the 3 long (and lighter) boxes up onto the porch then came up on the porch helped me get the last ( biggest) box onto our movers dolly then get it up over our kind of tall front door threshold. According to the bill of lading the 4 boxes weighed 246 pounds altogether. The 3 long boxes (one for the head/ foot/boards, one for the sides and some odds ends, one for the slats) werent too hard for me to handle by myself, even tho I am 73 now not in the best of shape. The last box, however / contains all the drawers and the rest of the parts so it weighs more than 120 pounds / youre gonna need 2 people or a dolly or strong cart to move it around.
The description says the drawers come pre/assembled. This is true and happily is only half the story about the drawers. The drawers are also INSTALLED IN A BOX OR CABINET! Ive set up drawer roller systems before know this can be a tricky proposition, but for this bed it is already done for you! .and this is why their box weighs so much. Each pair of drawers in their cabinet weighs about 55 pounds there are 2 cabinet/drawers sets in one double thickness box with more cardboard and Styrofoam and padding foam sheets and stretch wrap and tape (lots of tape), so youre pushing 130 pounds for the whole thing. Oh, and the drawers have actual dovetailed corners so they should stand up to many years of being pulled open pushed shut.
After getting everything out of the boxes, it took me about 2/1/2 hours to assemble this bed, mostly by myself. It was helpful to have a cordless variable speed drill with adjustable clutch (which I set to a fairly soft slip so I wouldnt over/drive or strip any strews). If you dont have the drill, youll just need a 2 Phillips screwdriver / they supply an Allen wrench for the bolts that need it.
The bed frame itself was in good condition upon arrival; based on what the pieces arrived in I feel lucky. The wood frame is dark and rich. It took a few hours to set up. The drawers are great and slide quietly when opened closed.
The only part I dislike is that there is a noticeable gap on the sides between our full mattress and the edge of the frame, so that you can see the light wood slats sticking out from under the mattress. If we used a bedskirt to cover that area, the skirt would hang down over the drawers, making them more difficult to access. A small issue but noticeable.
Very nice and elegant looking, easy assembly, drawers on sides are large enough to keep extra sheets or maybe a blanket, but they work well and are fully enclosed, can eliminate need for box spring. Unit is heavy (but you can place gliders beneath legs to make moving it easier) too large to return anyway. Caution: the space between frame and from floor can be a pinch point for feet or heels, just be aware (Im aware now).
LOVE this bed ! Drawers work smoothly. Heavy duty slats. Put it together myself ( FYI : 64 y/o woman pretty handy. Read a review about gluing as you go good tip ! Take your time. ) Looks fantastic. Just what I wanted. Highly recommend. Better than I even expected

I like this bed.
Beautiful bed. Assembly fast and easy. This is the 3rd piece of this Ive purchased over 3 years.
Damaged
The box looked like it came from a bomb site / the damage on the headboard is hidden by mattress. But otherwise it is a solid looking beautiful bed.
Quite happy with the king size version
