We got this bed for one of our guest bedrooms. I had no trouble putting the bed together on my own. The bed is relatively light so you can move it relatively easily once it’s assembled. Do note that this is probably best used with either a thicker mattress, or if you have a thin mattress, a box spring or at least a bunkieboard, since our friend who stayed with us said she could feel the middle rod of the bed frame (we have an usually thin memory foam mattress).
