This bed frame was perfect! I had help putting it together about halfway in, which expedited the process. With 2 people it shouldn't take more than 45 minutes. I didn't have a power drill so I hand drilled the nails in, but I would recommend
having a power drill. The instructions are easy to read, and it tells you how to stain it if you want a different color. Mine is still in same color it came it. I love how low it is to the ground. I'm 5'7" and it sits a perfect height for me to crawl into bed or get out without having to pole vault or squat. I love how minimalist it is. I am able to design my room with more freedom because of its nearly there design.
