Although the package arrived slightly damaged, the bed frame was fine--no scratches and functioning well. I am thrilled with how easy this was to set up. The 2 pages of instructions were clear and simple to follow! The bed adjustment (lifting/lowing the head and lifting/lowing the legs) was easy to do. I am of average strength for a 50+ year old, and had no trouble with this. I am already enjoying using this as my day-bed in my office and as a primary reading location! I strongly recommend this to anyone of reasonable health/strength who would like an adjustable bed, but isn't interested in paying thousands of dollars for an electronic automatic adjustable bed. This is a good product at an appropriate price from a reputable company!
