It was quite complicated and difficult to put together. Although there was a manual, it wasn't very user friendly. The holes for the boards and panels did not align in some instances and the bed isn't completely aligned as a result. Not enough screws either. Having to drill my own holes in some instances was very frustrating. Not the best quality wood either. Some of the panels were a little chipped upon delivery. Wouldn't recommend this bed. 
The box was delivered and was extremely heavy to take into the house. Had to take the pieces individually out of the box and up to the bedroom to assemble. Poor quality.
