I bought this bed for extra room and impending long term company. I am 73 and put this together with the EXTREMELY poor instructions. I won't say I zipped this together quickly and without a hitch or two, but overall not as bad as I had anticipated. I put it together by myself, until needing my husband to help with the attachment of head and foot boards (I don't see how one would do this without help). I did as suggested by another reviewer, I put bottom together first. It really helped to lay pieces together in appropriate groups. I put head and foot boards together at the very first as I could get those pieces out of the way. My husband tighten all screws and it is very sturdy and looks quite nice.
I thought it was smarter than me
