Def a two person assembly job since I did it by myself and wasn’t the easiest and you’ll need a power drill. Looks pretty, and fits the mattress I got well enough, but does creek after maybe 2 weeks of usage. Really sturdy but the two wood planks holding up the bottom of the bed aren’t placed in the best spot so there’s a weird imbalance in weight distribution. Otherwise, it’s great quality wood, as advertised and priced you would expect the quality.
