Very easy to assemble. Probably took ~an hour from taking it out the box to putting my mattress on with one person helping. I would complain about how low it is... but that's on me to not have taken more note when looking at the product description and picking something a ~6 inches higher off the ground. My backboard at the moment is a bit loose, so would advise you to tighten up when assembling.

Doesn't seem like a huge pain to disassemble either for future use when I move.
