This item doesn't come with any verbal construction which is always aggravating to an oldster. I felt like I was totally on my own as to
where to start putting it together, so early on there was some frustration. Eventually things started working out and once you pass the hurtle of the first bolt it went quickly and smoothly. Now I love it. Light weight and easy to move about, it has become an asset to my bedroom. No more tripping over my shoes.
