Bed took a few hours to put together but has a lot of pieces. It was easy to assemble. If its on a level floor its very sturdy. The bottom bed has a lot of clearance to the top bunk.
Ive had this bed a few months now and its gonna hold up for a long time. The only problem is, as many people have said, the building, which even for a robotics student required close to 8 hours and a ton of headaches.
This bed is pretty sturdy. I love how much space it gives us to put a desk and chair. My sons room wasnt very big and wouldnt allow room for a desk. But this sure did fix that problem
Took my father, daughter and I about 2/3 hours to put this together. Seems pretty sturdy, wobbles when my daughter gets in the bed but thats to be expected. Im sure if I attached it to the wall it would be better. The ladder rungs are so painful so I need to get something to cover them but so far so good
Just had to retighten some screws after the about a month, but almost a year into it, I have not had to tighten the screws again and Im very happy with the purchase
The bed is very nice, looks great. The downfall is the sturdiness. My 9 year old (70 lbs) just climbing up the ladder, causes the bed to shake a lot. Also, when assembling, the ladder does not have an ankor for the top so you must use zip ties to secure.
I am a 115 pound 41 year old woman. I bought this twin loft for myself because our house has a very odd layout and the only expandable space is upwards.
The package arrived, and I was able to assemble the bed, by myself, in about 2 hours. You really need to have a second person towards the end when its time to connect the two sides, but it CAN be done by one person if you have good spatial reasoning.
I left the upper front rail off, as the ladder doesnt give me enough clearance to clamber over the rails. The bed should definitely be anchored to the wall; if you have drywall or protruding baseboards, youll need to procure your own wall anchors, which is totally acceptable.
The bed is pretty sturdy even without the anchors (which I am getting today). I have it positioned over a full sized bed, both facing the same way. I just slid the loft over the top of the bed; the back rail mid/way up is the same height as the full bed I have underneath.
The only concern I have is the mattress rails and the little plastic toggles that go along the center of them. They seem to be a little flimsy. As stated above, Im 115 pounds, and I got up there after I positioned the loft in order to put the back rail on. The bed held my weight, but the little plastic toggles would slip off. Theyre shaped to fit into one another; one end has one hook, the other end has 2 with a space between them. The weak spots seem to be the end with only one hook. Im going to look into getting something to reinforce the slats better.
Overall, this is a good loft and I had absolute no problems understanding the instructions. Just pay attention to the pictures, and look ahead if you dont understand something, but I highly recommend this loft.

Worth it
I got this for my grandson, and he LOVES it. And that makes me happy.
Good bunk bed

Great bed with terrible instructions.

Not sturdy enough for comfort

One of the easiest assemblies Ive done
