Perfect storage solution for condo, where all you can go is UP!
I was looking for a way to add vertical storage to our condo with 16 foot ceilings in the bedrooms. Then I remember seeing a loft bed on Pinterest. We bought this for storage of camping gear and coolers! This is in my work room and I have a 6 foot table that I have full use of underneath. We have everything stored in the big plastic bins and it is well under 200 lbs. We also raised the whole contraption from the floor about 2 feet with 4 pieces of 30 long PVC pipe we found that fit perfect around the bottom legs. We just drilled a hole in the legs and the pipe and pushed a really long screw and bolted it. If you do this make sure you position the holes properly so the screw end that sticks out is facing the the back so you wont catch yourself on it walking by. I wouldnt raise this for kids at all but if you are going to use it for storage it was the perfect solution. Also... Make sure you put this together in the EMPTY room that it is going in.
