I love this bed.  It was delivered in lot of boxes but I didn't have to assemble the individual pieces.  For example the dresser came fully assembled, with the door knobs screwed to the inside of the drawers.  All I had to do was unscrew the doorknobs from the inside, re-screw to the drawer so they are now facing outwards.  2nd step was to add the feet to the dresser. Ta-da dresser complete.

I would recommend two people assembly the bed because some of the pieces can be heavy (the desk) or cumbersome (the support rails) to put on by yourself.  Also if you want the shelf that goes with and you can't find it (or the color) you want on Wayfair, google "hillsdale hanging side tray shelf."
