This bed has a high cage surrounding the upper bunk, which is good. The entire bed is about 6 lower than another futon bunk bed that we have. I would prefer that it be higher, because adults may have to duck when getting out of the futon sofa. It also sits lower to the floor, which means less under/bed storage. Our other futon bunk bed has unobstructed 10.5 clearance below the futon, which means we can easily put a trundle bed or storage under it.
Most of these bunk beds will move if the person above moves around a lot, but the bed is not in danger of collapsing. Assembly is not for the faint/of/heart, but my 15 year old son put it together in about 3 hours.
One nice thing is that there is a ladder on BOTH ends of the bed, so if you move it, there is still a ladder at the end of the bed! Most bunk beds have only one ladder.
Overall, Im happy with my purchase. Comes as shown in picture.
