Before I began assembling the loft, I prayed that there werent any defective parts. Unfortunately, my worst thoughts became true.
I paid about $350 for a sturdy and safe loft, however, the loft is nothing but sturdy and safe. The ladder is defective - the O piece does not align with the N piece and I attached the P piece to create the steps. Now, one step is crooked, unstable, and unsafe. The holes in the O and N piece clearly DO NOT align properly. I paid good $money$ for a quality and safe item, and this is definitely not it. If I tried to climb into the loft using that step, I know it will collapse on me. Im not risking the chance of falling and breaking the item.
Overall, the loft itself is somewhat sturdy but the defective ladder ruins the entire bed frame. If the manufacturers can do a better job at placing the holes into the right spot, then this wouldnt be a safety issue at all.
