I found this extremely easy to assemble. Its definitely easier with two people, someone can hold it up while they other person puts in the screws. My suggestion is when assembling the slats for the mattresses is to do the top bunk first. The directions say to do the bottom first, but that makes it much more difficult to reach the top. We did about 4 slats on the bottom before we realized that it would be harder to do the top so we switched gears and did the top first. Much better idea. I love the height of this bed. Im 54 and its just as tall as I am. Our ceilings are only 8 so this is perfect. Plenty of room for our 9 yr old to sit on top without worrying about hitting the ceiling. I can also sit comfortably on the bottom bunk without my head hitting the underneath of the top bunk. It does squeak a lot but it doesnt seem to bother the kids, they sleep great in their new beds. Its money well spent! Plus, I bought it on sale so even better!! Very easy to set up!
Exactly what we needed!
