Very easy to assemble by myself at age 72  but fluffing the branches took longer than expected.  Had my doubts how full it would look before I began, but I was extremely pleased when it was done.  My only complaint was that I couldn't envision the width of the tree with the stated dimensions and would have gotten a wider one for my corner had I been able to do that.  

Would definitely recommend it but especially for someone who has a smaller space.
