This definitely needs two people to put together. Overall went pretty quick, and delivery from wayfair was pretty simple. They brought everything in my home for me. My son wanted the ladder on the opposite side, which does not have a place to screw into place, but we were able to make a hole for it. I do feel it’s more aesthetically pleasing to have the ladder close to the wall side. Over all I think it’s pretty great quality for the price and my kids really enjoy it!
