We received this in a standard flat box and it did take 2 people to get it in and opened so we could carry it piece by piece upstairs. The entire set up is located in the headboard, you have to take the back off to reveal all the parts. It took awhile to set up and 2 people at one point because it felt a bit wobbly until the last parts were screwed in. This is a VERY BIG headboard. Very high for our bed in a box. We needed to get a box spring as well because its not a pedestal on the bottom. We got the lower one because the bed is high itself. The video shown has a higher box spring and mattress, making the headboard look lower than it is. Very dark suede with nice brass for decoration. I really like the bottom part, which needs no bed skirt. Not sure if this will make it on our smaller guest room though, its just very big. If you have a large room with vaulted ceilings this would be perfect.
