I am a petite 70 plus year old woman who put this together by myself. It took a little bit of time but it went together perfectly and it is just what I needed. If I was able to do it, it should get a six star rating. It looks great and appears to be very solid. I particularly like the amount of space under the frame. With the mattress on top it is also a great sitting height. Most beds are too low to the ground.
