We purchased this bunk bed for my daughters 6 and nearly 4. It arrived in two large boxes each piece was well cushioned but only a few pieces were labeled. We were left to figure out what was what by process of elimination and what was packaged in the same way. It went together fairly easily, it took one adult about 3 hours to build it from start to finish. We followed the advice of other reviewers and built the upper bunk on top of the lower, rather than building and lifting into place. Some of the pilot holes on the slats were not centered, but we were able to adequately secure them. Several of the holes on the headboard and footboard were not well reamed and has to be cleaned out before the hardware would seat correctly in the holes. Once constructed, it feels sturdy and the white finish looks very nice in their room. Its a shorter height, so I can make the upper bunk while standing on the ground once the back corner of the sheet is on. The official weight limit is 165, but I have sat in both bunks reading with my kids with no problems. Overall, its a great bed for the price-but be prepared to do a bit of extra work to assemble it well.
Decent quality for the price
