Fantastic set up for my conures. They are able to stretch their wings and fly from perch to perch. I live alone and was able to assemble this large cage all by myself. However it would be easier with help to hold up large pieces while you are screwing them together. My great dane Dolly helped by letting me use her to prop up the sides lol they are kind of heavy. It was quite user friendly as far as assembly. No instructions required, just a picture and some common sense. My tray had a cracked corner but after reading reviews I expected it. Wayfair has the best customer service and a new tray was sent out immediately. I did suggest that they ask manufacturer to ship tray separately as it is inevitable that a flimsy plastic tray is going to get damaged when being shipped with 50 lbs. of metal. I am very happy with the burgandy color that I ordered. I did not want it to look like the color of a typical metal cage which is kind of depressing. Happy color Happy birds!!
