Bought this since it had a high approval rating and wasnt too expensive. Very pleased! Bottom mattress is 9 with a 1-2 pillow top/plush top, and I can sit on the bottom bunk and read to the kids without bumping my head or it being too dark. Ladder rungs hurt my feet if I climb them barefoot, but the kids dont seem to mind, and Ill get used to it. I put a pool noodle on the ladder rungs to see if that would help spread out the load on my feet - that didnt do much. Very sturdy, easy to put together, bed doesnt come up off the floor when climbing the ladder. Just make sure you pay attention to where youre putting the openings to mount the ladder, as other reviewers have said. Black version with black hardware is very good looking. The side rails on top didnt seem like theyd fit, because the holes didnt quite match up, but after getting all the screws in and tightening them all slowly in turn, everything ended up together well and tightened up nicely. No problems with shaking, nice and sturdy. Love the 250 lb weight limit per bed.
Great for adults and kids
