Quite a few of the other reviews stated that this took a few hours to setup but for my husband and I this only took an hour and twenty. The instructions are clear despite some misspellings on page one and every bar and bolt is labeled to avoid confusion. There are even extras provided of some of the bolts and washers just in case, very thoughtful. We only ran into two problems: 1) the headboard was dented on the back out of the box and 2) its not as quiet as we had hoped. Since the dent faces the wall it isnt a big deal, but the squeak may mean we need to do further tightening. My husband is about 240, 60 and Im 145, 51. Havent slept this well in four years as the last bed had me rolling into the big lug like a marble without any support. Its worth every minute of setup and each penny spent to have sufficient support to keep from tossing and turning into a zombie at dawn. Ill provide a six month and year update to this review to showcase any long term or overall construction issues we have.
