For starters, Im 5 feet tall with little handiness and assembled this [mostly] by myself. I didnt pay attention to the time but I would say it took maybe 3 hours? It looks very intimidating once you open it but the instructions are easy to follow. I would definitely recommend a second pair of hands to help with holding things up (thats where I struggled). I use the Allen wrench that it comes with to tighten bolts about once a week and it usually helps with the squeakiness. Overall very happy!
Just Do It!
