Ordered this for guest bedroom for which we had a mattress only.  From reviews, it seemed to be constructed well and not too difficult to put together; both were correct.  It took two of us about an hour and a half to put it together; would have been 1 hour but we made an early mistake.  All hardware was included and while instructions aren't great, the photos did the trick.  It works perfectly for our needs while I will say for our 6'2" guest, a bit low to the floor but like the "zen" feeling of it.  Recommended.
