Actually pretty easy to assemble. You dont need two people but the extra hands and cerebral cortex sure is handy! Sturdy structure. Good hardware.
Some screws were pretty hard to start / like 90+ pounds of force (I am an engineer) / I would strongly suggest getting the correct Allen head socket and a socket driver to complete this job!! Maybe the manufacturer could ensure a little less interference fit of the screws into the frame. What a surprise
Update
The seller was reasonable with my concerns. We have resolved the situation to my satisfaction.
This product was not up to standards. The wood working appears as if it was done by freshman woodshop students. The wood is visibly cracked in some places. There are countless yellow discolorations and blemishes on the paint job. The dowels do NOT fit snugly and thus provide no support (which is a structural hard). Screw packet 2 was NOT included in the box, instead two screw number 7 packets were included. Instructions for assembly were also poor (thankfully I am handy). The entrance side is not well secured in final construction and is flimsy; it will require a box spring firmly attached to it so that it has more support. Its ok but it wont last long.

Shoddy construction, poor paint job, bad wood working.
