This bed is attractive and decently sturdy. The only part that could be sturdier are the mattress slats. They seem sufficient, but Id rather they were stronger. The bed definitely requires 2 people or more to put together. Be very careful about getting those early pieces in the right direction. They are not clearly marked inside/outside and if you put one (or two) in the wrong way you will be drilling little holes to put the mattress support bracket on and the side vertical support for the backside bed rails. Theres no way to flip them around with out taking the whole bed apart and starting over. The ladder can go on either side of the front rail and the steps are not so skinny that they are painful on the feet. Overall, this is a great product for the money.
I was able to assemble the bed by myself. It seems sturdy enough for my 7 year old and I even climbed in with her without the bed feeling wobbly (I weigh 160 Lbs).
Bought this bed for my 10 yr. old daughter. She loves her new bed. It is very nice but its not perfect. I dont expect anything to be in tip top shape. There are some cracks in the wood that appeared as her dad was putting it together. It is sturdy for her but my daughter is on the petite side. She is not overweight or anything like that. Im not sure if this bed will hold up if you have a child that is on the heavy side. It took her dad quite sometime to put this loft bed together but he was taking his time and was watching tv. Putting bed sheets on this bed is not so easy. I have scratched myself on the wood. Also, there was a very strong paint smell coming from this bed because it is painted white. My daughter could not sleep on this bed for 3 or 4 days. It was that strong. I found that lighting a candle and keeping the room well ventilated helped the smell. It completely went away after a couple of days. All in all this bed is very beautiful and has lots of space underneath. She loves it and really thats all that matters.
Brings you back to that college room dorm nostalgia. I assembled it alone but if you have someone there to assist you I highly recommend it. There are a couple areas in particular where its difficult if you do not have assistance
Nice and sturdy loft. Definitely need 2 people to put it together. My daughter has a dog and cat, so we built a set of steps that lead up to the bed. Our steps added to the strength of the bed and solidified the whole unit. Certainly a good bang for the buck.
When we ordered this bed in white the brown was nearly 2x the price and then when the white was back in stock the price was significantly higher than what we paid. Keep checking.
This took about 90 minutes to assemble and I had the help of a 10 and almost 12 year old. It would be impossible with only 1 person so get some assistance. I also used a power drill but be very cautious on the torque setting as you want to tighten, not drill the screws into the wood. Wood is very soft and could be easily damaged/cracked it over tightened. Like other reviews I went ahead and purchased 1/4 washers and 1/4 lock washers to use on all the bolts on the frame to add rigidity. Again, watch your torque settings if using a drill. I think this was 32 of each lock/regular washers. I did not use on the ladder as the rungs seem tight enough without.
We add a small side shelf (found on ) to hold clock and phone charger. Its been one night but daughter really likes it so far. She did say it was a little hotter but now she understands that hot air rises. We did have to replace ceiling fan with a flush mount light as this bed is too high but not too high she cannot sit up in bed.
Great option if you are looking to add space to a room and upgrade to a full size bed.
Pros: 1) Our young daughter loves the bed. 2) Thus far it seems to be a good quality and sturdy. My 5 year old daughter and I lay in it to read books at night. 3) I love that it allows for more play space in her small bedroom.
Cons: 1) Putting sheets on the bed is painstaking! I wish they would have made it a couple inches wider like they did on the length since that would make changing sheets a lot easier. As another reviewer mentioned, size down on your comforter/heavier blanket since you wont be able to tuck it down into the sides. Again, I struggle just being able to tuck down the fitted and then flat sheet. 2) As an adult it is not the easiest to get in and out of.but the ladder/bed is meant for a child so it is perfect for them.
To Be Mentioned: You need two people to put this bed together. I am guessing it took us an hour or two to do it.
Oh gosh! My two toddlers love this bed! They shair the twin and have had no problems yet. We put some curtains under the bed and now they have a secret hideaway. Its brought so much joy to these kids!
This is a great bed. Low enough so my daughter does not hit her head on ceiling. There is a slight wood odor but it not terrible. We bought the full size and a 8 inch mattress. Its perfect for my growing 10 year old.

Perfect for a child and enough space underneath to create a comfy nook and for storage
