David was anointed as a future kiing when he was a young shepherd ( 1 Sam. 16:11-13), perhaps 12-15 years old. H was anointed as King of Israel when he was thirty years old. (2 Sam. 5:3) This means that it was at least 15 years before he became king of Israel.

How was Solomon?

1 Kings ch.1 Shortly before King David died, there was one last rebellion, by his son Adoniyah who unlawfully proclaimed himself the next king. Bathsheva and Nathan urged David to take action, and David had his loyal servants put Solomon on his (David's) personal mule and take him down to the Gichon stream, where Zadok and Nathan anointed him as king. Solomon then sat on David's throne and the people came to bless him, and David praised God.See also:More about King DavidMore about King Solomon
