Easy to assembly but it did ship in three boxes and arrived on two separate days within a week.  Had to wait three days from arrival of first box before bed could be assembled.  Took about an hour for three people to assemble. All parts and tools were accounted for. Seems pretty solid and only needed to make a few minor adjustments after completing assembly.  Appearance is very nice. Size and quality of bed makes this a good choice for my teenage daughter’s remodeled room. Only suggested improvement might be deeper and/or sectioned drawers in the under bed storage.
