    Awesome bed! Sturdy and well designed!

    This bed is awesome!!! We have four boys, ages newborn to 10yrs, so we knew wed need to change the bed situation in their room. The three oldest are 2, 4, and 10 and they are super excited about this bed. Its very sturdy and very well designed. We got the one with an attached vertical ladder that also has the trundle drawer, to prevent them from using the ladders as a weapon, or a gymnasium Because boys are, well, boys. The only downside to this bed style is that you cant change the orientation of the L shape like you can the other style. And thats because of the trundle bed and positioning of the ladder. My husband and I agreed that since this is for boys instead of girls it probably wont be an issue since they dont care as much about decorating or rearranging their furniture, and also again This has a safer ladder. But this bed is the real deal! Its lower than a standard bunk bed which was important for me too since our boys are so young still. The two younger ones are on the bottom, but if they happen to get on top the fall isnt quite so far. I will say that this took us a very long time to put together. My guess is about 6 hours. But the disclaimer is that, I had to stop and feed the newborn several times, we had to stop to have lunch, and also the 2 and 4 year old were underfoot which made things take longer as well. I will say that many of the predrilled holes were not drilled all the way. So we were hand tightening screws sometimes half the length of the screw directly into the wood. That also made things take way longer than it should have. Now, we could have just pulled out the drill and made that easier, but we didnt want to mess anything up, which is easy to do with too much torc. Also, we figured the extra effort made the bed that much more sturdy because there would be very few loose holes for the screws. It made for a long exhausting day, but we are very pleased with the result! We still havent put the trundle drawer together yet though. Debating it thats wise with how mischievous the little ones are. The instructions were fine for us.I have an eye for details so I went by the pictures and made sure all the pieces were facing the way they demonstrate. Some of the pictures could have been better to show the parts in the back or bottom that are sort of hidden, but we were able to figure it all out without having to take anything apart. All the pieces were in the box.which some have mentioned being an issue. But fortunately, we didnt have that problem. There was only one board with a split in it, but its not weight bearing.its just the top rail on a top bunk. Were debating if we will have them send a replacement piece. We probably will since we want to keep this bed as long as possible. So I definitely recommend this bed! Its large so keep that in mind, but its really worth the price and time it takes to put together! Well made and packaged.
