This bed seems sturdy and the clay color is really nice. My only complaint is that the area under the bed isnt high enough for my 12 year old son to stand up in. It works fine if hes sitting at the desk, but he cant walk under it. I realize this is our mistake...the dimensions are there, and I obviously didnt double check. But between the name of the bed being high loft and it being rated to 400 lbs., we made the mistake of assuming (yeah, yeah I know the saying...) that it would be taller than it actually is. We had hoped to use this bed through his high school years, but Im thinking he will be passing it down to his younger brother in just a couple of years (or growth spurts). Kind of a bummer because he was so excited...took a little bit of the wind out of his sails once we realized how short it was. (And hes not a tall kid...just in general.)
Under Bed Area is shorter than you might expect
