I assembled this in about 4 hours by myself but I was also watching Netflixso it probably should have taken less time. The height is great and my 5 year old loves his new bed. Its a little wobbly if you give it a joltI might end up attaching some crossbars across the legs. Otherwise, great bed, Ive even slept in it with my son when he was sick and it didnt collapse!
I had a few assembly hang ups, so Ill try to help you out in case you face the same issues.
On page 8, you need to attach piece 10 (the side safety bars) to the bed using wooden dowels. This proved to be impossible if you dont loosen the headboard piece first. After I loosened all of those screws from the headboard, then I could easily attach the 10 pieces and then retighten the screws to the headboard.
Page 11, you need to roll out and attach the mattress support. You need to line the holes up PERFECTLY. My suggestion is to very loosely screw in all the screws before tightening them. Even then, it was tough so I dont know if the screw holes were a little off, or if I was. Either way, this was frustrating.
The rest of the assembly was pretty easy.
It would have been MUCH easier with two people, but I dont need no man! Also, after the fact, I see the website suggests power tools. Normally DIY furniture discourages power tools because you may over tighten or strip the screws. I would have loved to use power tools, so if you have them, definitely use them.
We ordered two and returned one because this one doesnt work as expected and we have to assume the other one will be problematic as well, considering our experience and the reviews. Giving it two stars because it stands and for now its fine, but only because were doing work to improve where its defective.
Pros
- Decent wood.
- High railings.
- Kid thinks its great.
Cons
- More wobbly than expected. I thought there might be a little bit of movement but Im surprised at the amount my very small kids can make it move. Well be stopping by the hardware store to pick up materials to add a brace or three between the legs.
- The ladder doesnt touch the ground unless someone is standing on it, no matter what we do with placement. Were picking up rubber feet to add to it so the ladder sits on the floor.
Meh
- You can see a lot of knots and wood grain through the paint. If youre looking for pure white, this aint it.
- As someone thats put a ton of furniture together and writes instructions for a living, I feel uniquely qualified to say these arent THE worst instructions but theyre definitely not clear in many parts either.
We chose not to return it because that would require taking it apart and boxing it back up, and because were at least handy enough to upgrade it a little to give it more longevity. But were definitely returning the one we had still in a box for our younger kid.
For more than $300, I wouldnt expect to have to build on our own braces or figure out a hack to make the ladder reach the floor, so I really cant recommend this.
this was fairly easy to assemble, although we used a drill rather that the Allen key provided as we would have been assembling it all day had we not. our child (3yo) loves the loft bed with a good hiding area/reading nook underneath. The drawers on the dresser are slightly less sturdy than other aspects of this, and we try to be careful when opening and closing them.
I absolutely love this bed! Its very sturdy for the most part the bed rail to protect the child from falling out is a bit wobbly but nothing crazy where I feel nervous my child will fall out. Its lower than I expected which worked out fine for me and my daughters room. The slide is very speedy but I added a ball pit at the bottom to cushion the fall. It took about 2 hours to assemble. My daughters father said the instructions were pretty simple to follow. The latter is sturdy as well.
Toddler loves it! I was able to fit a soft queen mattress under for him to start sleeping on until he is old enough for the top bunk but during the day he loves using the slide, the steps and goes on the top bunk to read. Easy to assemble! I did it myself in two hours- it helps to identify and lay all screws out first. Overall very pleased with the bed and how unique it is. It does have a strong chemical smell- paint and wood? so I ran a purifier for a few days before letting my child sleep there.
It looks so great! It came extremely fast, my kiddos loves it.. I used a drill to put together, everything was a one person job, except attaching the roof to the top bunk. One of my favorite purchases from . The directions were so small though, but it was fun.. As a single mother, being able to put this together was challenging. My kids kept coming saying youre doing a good job Mom. I love it!
Upon putting together the bed everything looked perfect. It was sturdy and easy to put together and my daughter was so excited! But after the third time of her sobbing that she hurt her tailbone at the end of the slide me and my husband tried to figure out how to fix that. I saw other people post comments about the end of the slide but figured it wouldnt be that bad It was pretty bad and she got pretty hurt. Anyways, to fix it we just flipped the bottom piece of the slide upside down and set a pillow at the end. Now she is obsessed and its perfect! I attached a few pictures for an example of what we did!
I love the bunk bed because we live in a bit of a small space, so we needed a bed that didnt take up too much space and it turned out to be perfect, its not very high and under the bed there is space to store things. The material is excellent and the style of the bed is cute ?
Product came quickly. Easy to assemble. Wood was imperfect. There were scratches, cracks, dents and a few hole drilled into incorrect spots. My husband easily fixed the hole issue as we decided it would be easier than returning and replacing. Good for a quick and temporary bedroom solution.

Cheap and easy to assemble. Far from perfect.
