This bunk bed is a pain in the butt to assemble， even with two people. Going through all the hardware pieces we noticed there were not enough of some of the fasteners and many of them were damaged. Luckily， our local hardware store had what we needed. I did send an e-mail to the seller and received a reply the next day offering to send replacement pieces. Unfortunately， we could not wait as we had already spent 8 hours assembling the bed and our children had nowhere else to sleep.
Its a good， sturdy piece of furniture but be prepared to spend ALL DAMN DAY putting it together along with at least one trip to the hardware store.
Prepare yourself to spend many hours of assembly
