UPDATED REVIEW
While still worth the money, this bed did not last when used by a 4 year old. The welds holding the metal bars together did not hold on either bed and for the boys safety, due to very rough metal edging, I had to replace them yet again. I attempted to use the daybed without the back wall since thats where the breaks occured, but the bed was so unsturdy, it wouldnt be safe for a pet to sleep on.
Value: 5/5 because the price was aming
Sturdiness: 2/5
Easy to assemble (and disassemble) 5/5. No problems there.
ORIGINAL REVIEW
I purchased 2 of these to go in my boys bedroom after going through multiple wood frame beds in the last 2 years. As a mom with an autistic child, I needed something sturdy that could hold up to his sensory needs. It never dawned on me to get a metal bed until I saw this one. So my review:
Easy to assemble. Took about 45min to assemble the first one via directions, and about half that time to assemble the second. All the holes lined up perfectly and everything was easy to assemble
Sturdy: i gave that area 4 stars because even though I followed the directions, the metal bars are hollow, the bed itself is quite wiggly Thats not the right word but Im going to use it for lack of better word. Its not oh its going to fall apart wiggly, but its a little bit. This bed will last longer than our previous beds have; probably for years.
Value: 5 stars! I grabbed this on sale, it was about 126 before taxes and worth every single penny. If I had to furnish another room for a child, I would without a doubt pay full list price for this.
