There's a general opinion that progressive presses are a quantum leap in difficulty compared to a single stage.

Everybody has a different mechanical aptitude. When I got my 550B, I noticed the difficulty in assembling it despite being a mechanically inclined person (jig/fixture designer-machinist, machine shop teacher, industrial trainer, etc.). I had a father and have brothers that would have found the assembly and use of the 550B nearly beyond their abilities. They could have, however, been able to deal with the simplicity of a single-stage press.
All people do not have the same abilities.
