The box is pretty heavy so I'm thankful the delivery person brought it upstairs for me. But from that point on, I was good to go. It was REALLY easy to assemble. I attached 3 legs very loosely then added the 4th. Then I just went back and forth tightening all the connections up incrementally. I did do opposing pairs: for example The front-back pair I would tighten up as a set, and then the left-right. That seemed to keep everything even. Hope that makes sense.
