It was easy to put together with two people. It is sturdy and the bottom bed really can hold 300 lbs plus without feeling as though it would bend. I also like the fact that it had a center support bar with two additional legs for extra durability. But wait it also come with these connector that attach to each bar for extra support. I wish that would have included more connector to add extra support for the top bunk. All in all My foster children are very happy with they new bed. So am I. Thanks Wayfair. Zibbys
