I was worried about putting this together. I had never assembled a bed and the fact that it came in a big box made me uneasy but the truth is that it was simple to do. I am 54 and weigh 117 lbs and thought that it would be too heavy or too difficult, but I was pleasantly surprised about how everything came together. Took me about 1.5 hrs to build. The bed is very nice looking and sturdy. Its a bit darker than the picture but I like it.
Hope this helps if you are trying to decide. My mattress is 13 inches and fits perfectly. I bought the Olee Sleep 13 inch Galaxy hybrid gel infused memory foam and pocket spring mattress. (Another great buy! But thats a whole other review.
Love my bed
