I assembled this bed all by myself and I'm 73 years old.  Once I completed it and slept on it, I give it 5 stars.   The storage is perfect for storing bed coverings and other stuff even shoes and pocketbooks.  The headboard bookcase is perfect for a small lamp,  a few books, and a radio.  AIthough its a twin bed, I purchased the extra length.  I like the way my guests room looks.    Great buy for my money
