Bed isn’t difficult to assemble however, the directions for how to assemble it are TERRIBLE. Parts are all over the map and in different boxes and there really isn’t any consistent method to it, other than the shelving unit which was incredibly straightforward. In addition, the doors have quite a few nicks in the finish and one piece (the bottom of the shelving unit) is completely missing an entire corner of the finish. Additionally, the screws for the bed frame DO NOT FIT THE HOLES. Luckily, the hinges were secured through the other screws and it seems sturdy enough but what a nightmare. Don’t waste your money on this - for the price I expected something of MUCH better quality.
