Love it! It looks great and arrived with no ... After buying a lot of furniture over the years from and not being impressed with the longevity of products, I decided to try this one. What a world of difference heavy solid wood can do! This is quite a sturdy and stable bunk bed. The customer service was very prompt and shipped me two parts. First was a side board that was presumably damaged during shipping. The second time was when a slat was broken at a worl. The slats are made of light wood and dont look very strong, and it most certainly wouldnt withstand kids jumping on it. I have it in a bunk-bed configuration, so there is very little headroom for kids to jump on this bed. When the kids are older, I plan to revert it to a side-by-side configuration and hopefully by then the kids wont be so inclined to jump on their beds. I have put two spring mattresses directly on the slats. This is a good buy. I personally prefer steel beds as they are strong, safe and durable. But, this appears to be one that should last until the kids leave home.
