The bed came with instructions for a completely DIFFERENT bunk bed. Its been a year and I already have had to toss the bottom bunk, the top is barely hanging on. The wood was so flimsy and cheap, you had to tighten the screws VERY often and in doing so eventually leads the wood to crack. Dont waste your money/time, this bed is a safety hazard!
I loved this bed when I first assembled it, but after 6 months the screws are coming loose, my ladder is constantly falling which causes the top rail to fall as well.
The side rail for the top is not very sturdy if your child leans on it, it wobbles. Ladder does not touch ground and is few inches off ground untill child steps on it.
After reading reviews, I was most concerned with what mattress size to get, sturdiness, mattress slats, and the angle of the slide.
We have a 6 inch spring mattress on top (for jumping), and a 5 inch gel/foam on bottom (for sleeping). The first pic shows how a 6 inch mattress fits with the railing on top.
I am 135lbs and climb on it with my 2.5 year old. With the exception of the front rail feeling like you shouldnt pull on it with all your adult weight when you climb the ladder, the rest seems very sturdy! No wobbling or creaking.
I had intended to use both sets of mattress slats for the top bunk after reading reviews (and put the bottom mattress on the floor), but ended up installing the slats on both beds. It seems fine on the spring mattress, but you can feel them through the gel/foam mattress—more slats would alleviate this and be better!
As for the slide, it is on the steeper side (Im not sure I wouldve even taken too much note of this on my own had I not read so many reviews on its steepness), but my 2.5 year old loves it and it hasnt phased or deterred her one bit.
My husband helped hold the rails up during assembly (the only part that definitely needs a second person) but other than that I had it together on my own in two and a half hours.
Product came nicely packaged. It was very easy to assemble, and is a much safer option for younger children as it is lower to the ground than most bunk beds!

My son loves this bed!
I love this bunk bed and the fact that its low to the ground is perfect for when my youngest starts to sleep in a big boy bed!
Beautiful and safe for children
Looks great but more important i feel my grandchildren are safe getting in and out of this
Dont waste your money

So sturdy enough

instuctions confusing, parts not marked well
shipping was poor, item very late and pkg arrived damaged. some parts scratched and marked up
Looks nice but not sturdy cheap for the price of the bed.

Great bunk bed for young kids
Product came nicely packaged. It was very easy to assemble, and is a much safer option for younger children as it is lower to the ground than most bunk beds!
Very sturdy made bed
Very sturdy and well made bunk bed. Not hard to assemble but easier with two people due to the size of the pieces.
