I have had loft beds in the past and I was worried about getting a metal one in case it was creaky and unstable. This bed is brilliant, really well built, easy to assemble and I am super happy with it. Im an adult, weigh about 150 lbs, got a 5 inch memory foam mattress to go with it. This was slightly more expensive than the cheapest brand but well worth every penny.
It was easy to assemble but time consuming of course. Super sturdy and it doesnt creek and make any noise at all. Opens up ample space in the room for activities.
Loved that this bed can fit a cal king under it! Saved a lot of space while sharing a room with kids. The bed is shaky but not noisy thats why I took one star off, but it is perfect for my kids.
Delivery:
If you purchase the version with the workstation, it will come in two separate boxes - one for the bed and one for the workstation. For us, the workstation arrived first, and the bed came a day later.
Assembly:
When it comes to assembling, the directions were perfectly accurate, simple, and clear. Make extra sure the holes line up to where they show them in the picture. Take breaks and make sure you stay fresh while you put it together so you dont miss anything. That being said, it really wasnt the worse thing in the world to have to dismantle part of it to fix my mistake.
Sturdiness:
I did a lot of research before choosing this bed. Id say its lived up to the reviews. It is generally a sturdy bed for my soon-to-be 9 year old. It feels a bit wobbly when I climb on it (58, 140lbs, so I probably wouldnt recommend it for adults. It does come with two L brackets to brace it to the wall. However, the brackets do not reach the wall if you have baseboards, which most people do.
Usability:
We purchased the version that comes with the workstation. It seems like good solid wood for the table and shelves and it is a lot of space. Due to the slight wobbliness, though, things get moved around when my daughter climbs up and down and moves around on the bed. Its not a good place to put your drink if someone is using the bed part, but otherwise is fine. We are pleased :
Im very happy with this bed, or my daughter is, BUT it was a bit of a pain to put together. It came with the hex wrenches needed to build it. I would have rather used my drill and not spent so much time turning the bolts by hand. That being said, I put the two ends together on my own. I had to get my teenager to help with finishing because the room in which we built the bed didnt have enough floor space to build the top on its side and then flip it upright.
At any rate, my queen size bed fits under this loft bed, which is what I needed. My daughter loves her top bunk, and Im overall happy with this purchase.
Be aware, this bed squeaks a LOT. As in, every time my daughter flips over in her sleep. Once Im asleep it doesnt bother me too much but I have to send her to bed at least a half hour before I go to bed (which is fairly early since I get up at 4am for work.
Also, I bought pool noodles, cut them to fit the ladder rungs, and slipped the rungs through the noodles before putting the bed together. Its much easier on my daughters feet. I also added one to the top side rails after it was built to save her knees as she goes over the top rail. Probably my only complaint about the design is that there is no opening in the head/foot rails at the top of the ladders.

Very sturdy. It is a bit taller than expected but my 5 year loves it. It was delivered earlier than what was told.

Super happy with this puchase!!
I live in a pretty small room so this will be perfect. Its about a 4 hour project for one person but its a sturdy bed and is great for more space.
