I read reviews for so many bunk beds. I was looking for a sturdy bed that an adult could sleep on the top bunk as my son requires a parent to lay with him until he falls asleep.
This bed is very sturdy! We purchased a white frame and painted it blue to my 4 year olds specifications.
Nice bed for the price point. Putting it together was pretty easy. My 7 year old was able to do most of it with a little muscle help. The little plastic locks that slide into the top bunk to essentially keep the rungs in place are ridiculously tight and you cant get them in....not even with a hammer. I was worried I would damage the bed or break the plastic....and of course there are like 50 of them. We have had to rely on the weight of the mattress alone to keep the rungs in place. Its strong enough to hold an adult, but the bulk of the bed is overhead and the base seems a little insecure unless you secure the bed to the wall with the brackets provided...much like you wood earthquake proof a tall bookshelf.....however....securing it to the wall isnt easy if you have any type of floor trim because the bed cannot sit flush with the wall. Either you will have super long screws and have them exposed a whole inch out of the drywall before they even reach the bed frame.....or you have to remove your base trim to have your bed up against the wall.
This bed is as sturdy as it gets! Time consuming but easy to assemble ( you need 2 people towards the end and its super cute! Our daughter loves it!!
PS. Its metal, so not forgiving for head bumps, etc. It is better for the 8+ age group.
So, for the price its a pretty good deal. Although, i would definitely take measurements and give about 8 additional inches. The way that its set up, you have to literally climb OVER the railings because there is no opening where the ladder is. Also, you cant change the position of the ladders so now that Ive put it all together... my daughter cant use her ceiling fan because its in the way. Also, some of the screws are stripped.
I wouldnt purchase again but since Ive already taken 3 hours putting it together, Im not taking it apart for a refund.
This is mostly perfect and i cant complain. Im very happy i got it. I read a BUNCH of reviews and this is the one I chose. What would make it perfect perfect is if it came with additional hardware to anchor it to a stud. Also it is awkward climbing up- my 4year old doesnt have a clear handle at the top to pull herself onto the bed. But she figured it out it just took some practice. Assembly was mid-level easy. Lots of allen wrenching, and a power drill attachment can only be used on a few holes because of the angle/placement. The picture legend of the hardware did not perfectly match the actual hardware so i thought we were sent the wrong hardware (the dimensions drawn were different from actual. We made one mistake and had to undo/redo a small section. Not too big a deal. No squeaks and just a little movement when the kid is climbing/playing above. We put a queen bed beneath and it fits perfectly.

Too many parts
Everything was good besides putting it together, soooo many pieces
So much more space in my teenagers room.
I just love this bed. Its perfect for my 13 year old. She has a desk and space for storage. Great Buy. I recommend!
Looks and feels strong
Very sturdy. Took 2 people half a day to assemble but so worth it. Now sleeps a 9yo and 4yo comfortably.
Great bed! Sturdy!

Feels a Little Top Heavy

Definitely read reviews! Sometimes cheap isnt the best.

Great for a little extra space!
This bed was easy to assemble and works for extra space in my sons room. It is perfect for what we need it for and the price was reasonable too!
VERY close to perfect

Nice bed.
Love it, but it arrived with dings in the paint and corrosion stains. One end cap was damaged.
