After reading the reviews, I took a chance and ordered this bed for my 16 yo son. Set up was pretty easy for me, but I have experience with rta furniture. I dont think the instructions would help a newby. The shipment arrived fine, but is very heavy have a 2nd or 3rd person help you unpack and set up. The hardest part of doing the assembly was getting the molding on. If I had to do it again, I would use gorilla glue and clamps to secure the molding first, then screw it in. But it looks great and my son is happy, so I am happy.
Not bad for the price!
