Bought this bed this week with budget and quality in mind and I wasnt dissapointed. Similar beds I looked at were 2x and 3x the money so I invested the money I saved in a good hybrid mattress to combine with this bed frame. putting it together was done in about an hour. (personally I dont think it was worth the extra $100 for someone to come and assemble it for me, so I did it myself). If you follow the instructions and carefully look at the pictures you should have no problem, no extra tools are necessary. word of advice, make sure the wooden pieces that support the mattress are put with the curve pointing up. I say that because I read some reviews here saying they dont support the mattress and they are falling off and upon looking at the pics they provided I noticed that they installed the wooden pieces in the wrong direction. when adding these wooden supports try putting one side first then the other-side, and finally connect both with the plastic connector piece. If done any other way its more challenging to make a good fit. would definitely recommend.
