This came in two boxes and took a good two hours to put together. The instructions, however, were fairly easy to follow. The wood is some kind of pressed particle board, but it is much sturdier than I expected for such an affordable price. The paint job was overall good, with the only parts that were left unpainted or poorly painted were areas that are covered up with assembly. this looks intentional Once assembled the beds were very solid, with no worries about movement or noise. The ladder is more impressive than others Ive seen on bunk beds, as they are think and flat instead of rounded. Crossbars under the mattress provide very solid support. The overall height is shorter than most bunk beds, which works perfect for our 4 and 5 year olds. We put a 6 mattress on top with a foam topper and this seems to leave a perfect amount of safety support from the rails. With an 8 mattress on the bottom there is enough for our 4 year old to sit up in bed, but barely. Overall this was a great buy for the money. Both our girls love it, and we have no concerns.
Great purchase for us.
