Very easy to put together! My husband and I put it together in about 45 minutes and it works perfectly for us! We love the height of the bed and how it puts the room together. If you put it together correctly you wont have any problems with it and everything lines up seamlessly. The bed is very sturdy and does not shake and I can barely feel the bed move when he gets up in the morning before me for work. The price is amazing for this product and I would definitely buy it again for our guest bedroom!
