I am a 78 year old single woman, and I assembled this bed with no problem. Full disclosure: I took a lot of breaks. As one reviewer said, blessed be the supplied ratchet. As another said, one set of slats didnt have holes drilled. I could have drilled them, but it wasnt necessary ; I just moved that set of slats an inch past the peg. Non issue and probably would have also been if both sets were missing holes; it would have meant maybe 5 between the center slats, but as the rest were like 1, non issue in my opinion. I think its a gorgeous bed. Cant believe the price. Clever the way they use sticky stuff to hold mattress and slats steady. Very pleased. In addition they (accidentally?) included a 12 mattress, but as I cant stuff it back into the box and lug it out the door ( weighs waaaaay more than bed) and Covid precludes them entering my apt.guess I have to keep it
Oops, turns out the mattress belongs to another tenant. Good thing I was unable to return it! Hi
So easy to assemble even a 78 year old can do it!
