It took me about 3 hours to put together. The bed frame came shipped with very li damage. However it did come in one very heavy box. Wish it was in two boxes (Im sure the UPS driver would appreciate too). Every wooden piece was identified with a number, so it wasnt that difficult to figure out what went where. Just make sure you give yourself time to put together without distractions.
I do wish the ladder was a bit wider, the bed is for a 13 year old boy, and while he is not tall, he is of normal width. Bed should hold up to his use until he gets tired of it, or moves out for college, which ever is first. Kids love it easy to put together.
Solid and functional
