Great bed! Very sturdy! My three year old loves his new high up giant bed replacing his toddler bed. It doesn't feel so high that he is scared, and I feel confident enough that unless he literally dove off head-first, any injury from an inevitable horseplay fall would be mild (I am not delusional. He is a wild boy, so I know eventually he will jump on this bed despite my warnings and will fall, but for now he's doing great). With a thin mattress (I believe the one we got was 5 or 6) and no box spring, the side guard rails are perfect protection height. The stairs feel much safer than a ladder for someone his age who still does a lot of sleep squirming, and easier for him to navigate up and down in the dark when he needs to get out of bed to harass me.
It is supportive enough to hold the weight of two average sized adults (140-180 lbs each) the three year old at once, as all three of us have snuggled up in it for story time without so much as it shifting under our weight, and under-bed section is awesome for a fort, storage, or a second mattress for sleepovers.
My only honest complaint would be the same complaint I will have for any loft bed ever, which is that changing the sheets is not the easiest task in the world. Fortunately, the mattress I got is foam and very foldable, so I can actually lift it up and pull the sheets over, but 9 times out of 10, I still have to get up on the bed to make it. No big deal for me, but it can be frustrating when wrangling a wild preschooler and trying to quickly change sheets after a MOTN potty accident or something. That would be the only possible selling point for me for a standard twin bed, versus this cool loft. I always wanted bunk beds or a loft bed as a kid, but my parents said no, so naturally I am living my own dreams vicariously through my child. Worth it.
Just like other reviewers have said, this bed does take about 4 hours to put together. There are some parts where you'll definitely need a second set of hands, but overall it's not hard at all. I bought this bed for my 2 year old son. He loves it! I felt that the steps would be safer for a boy his age, so that's why we chose this bed instead of the one with a ladder. We also have a 6 inch memory foam twin mattress on the floor underneath the loft bed for our younger son. This set up works perfectly for us. The boys also enjoy hanging a sheet off the side to make this into a fort.
Perfect... real solid structure! When it says it hold up to 600 labs I believe it! My son is 35 lbs I am 120 lbs and my husband is 218 labs!!!! We all got on top and it didn't even creak or budge! Great buy!
Awesome bed, but definitely more work than I would have liked putting it together. Everything thing is extremely sturdy and just about anyone can lay in it. I would definitely by this again, but have someone else put it together.
This was better than I expected! No doubt about it though, when you lay out all the parts it is overwhelming. Just push through it and the end result is worth it. The whole unit is very sturdy and my little boy loves, loves, loves it. The steps great and the cubbies are cool. The step with the door does seem to drag a bit and may cause some scuffing but realistically, who cares...it's a step. I have four boys so if that is all that happens to this bed I am totally satisfied! Thanks!

Awesome Bed- Wish I had it as a kid!

My son loved it! We put a curtain around the bottom part to make a hideaway. Great materials

Difficult to put together
But once it's together it's great
