Boxes were heavy for me to move. Assembly instructions were really good and not hard to follow. I was able to assemble without help (I am a 72 year old woman). The last step getting the part where your feet rest when sleeping was confusing. There is a wheel with a screw in it and I am not sure what I am supposed to do. Do I tighten the screw or what. I agree with previous reviews that the cushions are quite firm but not a negative for me. If my guests give it an ok for sleeping I will be ordering another one.
