I dont know what peoples definition of easy to put together is but this thing is a pain in rear. The instructions themselves are easy to understand because it is not complicated. However, getting a lot of the screws in was extremely difficult and I stripped one using the included tool. So, I stopped, went to the store and got some WD/40 which made this a heck of a lot easier to put together. You also need two people in my opinion to put this together safely. Additionally, make sure you have a box spring, the slats on this bed are not close enough together even for a firm spring mattress, let alone a memory foam mattress. The price is right, it looks decent enough, and like others have said it doesnt creak/feels sturdy. I would personally give this 2 Stars based on my poor experience however I dont think that is fair so Ill give it 3.
Be prepared
