How difficult is this bed frame to get the pieces together? How long did it take you?

It took my husband and father in law about 4 hours to put together just because of all the pieces. I will say we actually had to go to home depot to get some extra support boards for the center where the bed actually lays on - it feels like they don't give you enough so we put in some extra

About twice as long as they say in the directions ... perhaps about 4-5 hours all toll ... but I was doing it completely unassisted (a second person would have certainly helped)

It takes a few hours. One review talks about using extra parts for stability. Some L brackets and short screws. Good investment. We have had ours for about 5 years now. Pretty good quality.

It took me a very long time (2 days) but I was working by myself and ended up with a bed that had holes in the wrong places. If you can afford a nicer bed, I would encourage you to get one. This bed fell apart with 2 or 3 months of me assembling it. What a waste of time and money!!!

It took my husband and I about 1 1/2 hours to complete. It was not difficult.

Instructions were clear, and straight forward. Squaring it up is necessary so that the draws slide in uniformly. Just give it a tug on the corner until it is squared. Takes 2 hours

It's not difficult. I don't remember how long it took. Once it's together, if you move it, you have to be sure everything is square. It's a little flimsy but works fine as long as it is assembled correctly.

After moving upstairs , my wife and I laid out all of the parts and organized them , I think it took an hour and a half total to assemble and position the drawer frame then installed the drawers . I would say it had a 5 out of 10 difficulty with the drawers

It took about 30 minutes. Not complicate,but there are lots of screws and bolts.Good luck!

About 90 min if you're comfortable with Ikea-level instructions. These drawings are correct, but there are a lot of little details that you won't realize were informative until after you get to the next step and see what you did wrong. If I were to do it again, I'd focus more on two steps ahead. Little things, like the hinges not being symmetric, aren't made clear and then when you go to insert the top onto the bottom and they don't line up, the problem becomes obvious. Save the assembly for a time when you won't be rushing.

Not too hard...takes 5-10 minutes to remove/put on. FYI, while I enjoy it occasionally, the difficulty of assembly wasn't worth it! It took 2 of us 1/2 day.

My husband put it together in about 3 hours. I helped with some of it that required someone to hold a long piece level and someone to screw in the screw. Only once did he put the wrong piece in the wrong place, but we caught it quickly before it was too hard to undo!

Hello - the bed does not come fully assembled. The bottom half of the staircase is fully assembled as is the drawer pedestal under the bed. The bed goes together very well and has fully diagrammed directions. I would say 2 hour assembly for someone who never did it before.

Someone else took the bed out of the box and assembled it for me, so I don't know if there were instructions in it or not. I would suggest that you contact the seller and ask for a set of instructions. I do remember the person assembled it said that some of the holes were not perfectly aligned and he had to drill a couple of holes to make the pieces fit together.

oh no, once it's together you are not going to want to take it apart. I wouldn't say it's a hard assembly, but it's certainly not fast. It takes a couple hours to assemble.

About six pieces. My son did it. He said it wasn't hard. You may need someone to help hold it while you put it together. .it took him about an hour and a half for all three pieces. He is very good at doing this. It might take you a little longer but he said it wasn't hard.

I assembled mine today and it took roughly 2.5 hours. I could have done it faster as I was also moving furniture around the living room to situate everything properly while i put it together.

It took about two hours to put together. I don't have a bad back and my back hurt after I was done! I could not have put it together without my husband's help. It's very heavy to get it in the house and flip it over while assembling and move into place once it's done. I would advise getting some help if your going to buy this.

It took less then a hour. I thought it was very easy. I have never put something like this together before and it was easy.HAVE A GREAT DAY, Denise

I had a guy put it together and it took him about 45 minutes by the time you unpack and layout everything. I would not classify it as easy to assemble, but I'm not mechanical.

Not hard to put together, but it does take time. Yes you must string each line off crystals. But it is so worth it. About 2 hours from box to complete.....enjoy.

It took me a couple hours. I later out all pieces in my living room and started assembling. I follow instructions step by step to make sure I didn't mess up. Also there is a part towards the end that you'll need help putting two larger pieces together. I enjoy this stuff so I had fun. But if it's not your thing, you won't like it. But it's a solid piece of furniture.

By myself it took 3-4 hours.... Tons and tons of tiny pieces and panels to clip together, but the directions weren't hard to follow at all and once together it's very sturdy

I was able to do it myself in about 15 mins. I'm not the greatest with putting things together. Example I need help with most Ikea things. But I thought this was easy.
