I ordered these August 13, 2013 and they arrived within a few days in perfect shape. My son was anxious to put them together, but I warned him that he probably better read all the reviews on before he began. (So many reviews stated that these were such a pain to assemble that they took hours to complete. He responded with, I dont need to read the reviews, I can do it, no problem. and off he went to tear open the box and figure it out.
An hour later, the beds were completely assembled without one question or problem!!! This is when I love having kids!
The beds are perfect for his room. They look modern clean and are surprisingly durable.
Dont let all the reviews scare you.....if a 16 yr old can do it, so can a patient adult who knows how to follow directions.
nice bed, just set it up. bought a Night Therapy - 7inch Memory Foam Mattress with Viscolatex Layer - Twin
There is about a 7 gap at one end of the bed.... maybe Im missing something, but super UNSAFE....
My 6 year old loves his new bed. We recently moved and he needed more versatility for his room. He loves to sleep on top and then uses the bottom for playing video games. Also great for sleep overs. Would be nice if it came with the futon mattress instead of having to purchase separately, otherwise, very pleased with the purchase. Our two teen nephews put it together in less than 2 hours!
My 13-year old twin daughters decided they wanted black metal bunk beds to create a more social atmosphere in their fairly small bedroom. This particular style worked great, because it has a smaller footprint (and price tag than most wooden beds and certainly the side-by-side twin beds they had before. The frame is very sturdy, and even though it is tedious to put together, all those little pieces are reinforcing the slats which are holding our precious children. Reading the reviews proved most helpful, and Id like to thank the buyer who left feedback about using channel lock pliers to insert all those gray tabs. Absolutely do that. He suggested taping cardboard to the jaws of the pliers to make sure you dont scratch the frame. I used electrical tape. Another reviewer recommended inserting one side of the tab first then snapping the other side in with the pliers. Worked like a charm. Now, only time will tell how many years we can get out of these beds. So far, my daughters love them.
I bought this for my room since my bedroom is tiny. The height was perfect and wasnt too bad to assemble. Only took about a half hour. The only thing is I wish there was an opening where you crawl up the ladder.
I got this for my girls (5 annd 7 and I could not be more thrilled with our purchase! I looks great, it is very sturdy, and assembly was easier than I had anticipated.
This is a great bed but putting it together was another story. The instructions are not right. The image reference where and what pieces go together but it was opposite. (Im referring to a sticker Because your put it together the way the instructions are telling you, you will be taking the bed back apart. Im giving it 4 stars because it is very hard to convert the futon part from bed to couch, it takes 2 people or one strong person to do this. But this is a very sturdy bed and NOT squeeky....
I purchased 2 of these and they were simple to put together. I did use a small mallet to insert the plastic tabs. They were the only rough part about putting them together. The trundle was purchased to fit under an existing twin bed. They fit under the beds nicely. I liked that they were close to the ground so I could put a standard mattress on it and still get it under the bed.

Very sturdy/kids love it!
Very intricate to put together, but you could tell with each step how sturdy the beds would be. My grandsons love their new bunk beds!
