Assembled with my husband and wasn’t too difficult. The quality is decent enough for coming out of China. The shiny chrome screw heads and washers are glaringly ugly against the dark metal of the footboard. I had some dark brown acrylic paint to paint over them. When walking into the guest bedroom the eye just went right for those shiny objects. Very unattractive. If you get this bed, be prepared to paint over that shiny chrome.
