Being 7 months pregnant it was no speedy task but it was easy to assemble. I wanted to put it together myself without having to wait for husband to do it. Instructions are clear and packaging of crib was intact and there weren't any damaged or dented pieces which I was happy about. I did a lot of research on the type of crib I wanted for my baby but I didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars on one and this one was affordable and met all the needs I had in terms on paint and green guard certified. I'm happy.
