My husband ordered these bunk beds and just put them together yesterday for our daughters (ages 9 and 6). They are well made and quite sturdy. The seems to be of good quality; I was pleasantly surprised. There is no major chemical or paint smell at all, which also somewhat surprised me as Ive noticed that smell coming off of painted kids furniture in the past. The bed also looks attractive and trendy; comparable to kids furniture we have purchased from Pottery Barn, for example. My one minor complaint is that there isnt a lot of head room between the bottom bunk and the top bunk, but Im going to guess our mattress is on the thicker side so that could be part of it. It did take quite some time to put together and my husband is an engineer. Not sure how a single mom could put this together by herself in 2 hours. Id say give yourself more like 4 or 5 hours to do it right. Overall, great bunks and we are very pleased with them.
Nice bunk beds so far
