Quick shipping. Was projected to arrive on a Monday and got here on Friday afternoon. I was expecting this to come in an even bigger box than it did so I was very impressed with how compact it was packaged. The package did weigh 90 pounds but I prefer that over having it shipped in multiple boxes. That would have been unnecessary in my opinion. Everything was labeled and the instructions were awesome and straightforward. It was a very simple assembly. It took an hour and a half from start to finish. All of the pieces were there and they even included a bag of some spare parts. My 9 year old son loves it so much. I have a 5 inch memory foam mattress on it so from the top of the mattress to the top of the guard rail there is about a foot or more of railing/security. We chose this because of the versatility of what we could do with the extra space under it. We can use it as an empty space for play, put a desk under it for a workspace, put a sofa, tv, dresser, or another bed under it if we want. My daughter wants one now and Im kicking myself for not getting 2 at once. I wanted to see how we liked it before getting the second and now theyre out of stock, so dont wait if your considering buying more than one! Ill be checking back constantly to see when it comes back and hopefully for the awesome price I got ours for.
ONLY downfall is that the black plastic caps that come in the tops and bottoms of the 4 main posts came damaged and cracked. I saw this on another review as well so I know we arent the only ones. 4 of 8 were good and the other half were not. Thankfully we are using it on carpet for now but I will be contacting the company and asking about replacements in the morning in case we do decide to use it on hardwood.
I like the bed frame easy to put together and all. The one thing I dont like, there is no gap to crawl in from the latter, you have to climb over the railing still. I find this frustrating as Ive had it for about a month now I think. Besides that one thing I honestly have no problems with it so far
(Pictured: the comfy space under my bed
Bought it for moving into a studio apartment so I could have more space. Then had to take it apart and put it back together when I moved back home, but thats no fault of the bed. :( Still feels just as sturdy though! It does squeak and wobble a little, but that hasnt seemed like a problem. Im using it as a 123lbs. adult with no issues.
My bedroom at home is VERY! small, so most of my space is under my bed. As such, Ive got a whole little living rooms/cozy nest under my bed. So Ive got my TV, game consoles, movies, stereo, computer, and seating, all under my bed. Its super cozy! Prior to getting this bed, I just didnt have much in my room aside from a dresser.
When putting it together, I strongly recommend not tightening the bolts more than necessary. Ive seen some complaints of bolts breaking and flying off with regular use, but it sounds to me like they were really cranking then on in the first place.
What kinda sucks about loft beds in general, aside from the ladder, is you give up having a nightstand. So if you do get this, I recommend getting hanging baskets or platforms to use as a nightstand, so you dont have to keep your water bottle and VapoRub on the bed.
I really like this bed!
This bed took a highly skilled carpenter 2 hours to assemble with an electric drill.
It is mildly squeaky and it does sway a bit if youre climbing in or turning over.
The ladder is painful to step on because its just metal bars. Its challenging to get from the metal bars into the bed over the railing.
I think its a great bed if youre in a pinch and need something affordable that youre only going to use for a few years.
Also, the carpenter who set up the bed told me I will need to retighten the screws periodically.
The extra space it saves me is worth its quirks.
Overall this is a good bed for the price. I dont normally write product reviews, but the description of the dimensions on this one needs corrected. I bought this bed specifically because the description said the under bed height was 58 inches. I need to put a shelf underneath the bed that is 57 inches tall, which would have worked beautifully if the bed actually had 58 inches of under bed height like the description said. The under bed height of this bed is only 55.25 inches. This may sound nitpicky, but I passed on a different bed that had the right dimensions because the posts on this one were round and were a better match to the bed I bought my other daughter who shares a room. I would have been perfectly happy with this bed if it had matched the dimensions in the description. I wouldnt have bought it if I had known it wasnt going to have the clearance I needed. If you dont need 58 inches of under bed height, I recommend this bed. It is a nice bed. If you need to put a cubby organizer under it that is 57 inches tall, you need to look for a different bed.
Pretty good bed that opens up a lot of space for the bedroom. Takes some time to put together since there are so many parts. But easy to follow instructions.

Good but there are some things I dont like
Very wobbly and there is no hole in the frame above the ladder to get into the bed. I am 53 and I cant stand straight up under it.
Good price and sturdy
Sturdy minimal design. Love it.
No gap to crawl in from the latter

Great loft frame for the price
Love the way this set up came. Great way to maximize space.
Good enough
Its doing what it has to do but is definitely on the wobbly side
Laying on it right now!

Short-term Extra Space on a Budget

Under bed height dimension is incorrect by almost 3 inches
