My 9 and 5 year/old kids share a room. My initial set up was using the Flysta bookcases to divide the room// that could have been great if their room has a bit more sq ft of space! So I kept looking and searching for new ideas on Pinterest and YouTube etc. I want each kid to have their own space but not to sacrifice the overall space in the room. Finally I decided to use loft beds. I myself had one when I was little. BUT I didnt like that straight ladder and small desk with built in wardrobe under the bed. I think this simple loft bed with walk/in desk area is better. Kids can put whatever they prefer behind the desk and the desk is a good size too! Its like they each have their own cubicle! I have attached 2 pictures. Yes its pretty messy but u get the idea. I also had to take a risk not knowing if I could fit 2 loft beds (80 inches each) side by side in the room (but it was perfect fit like custom made!) Also the bed is sturdy! I am not light and I climbed on the ladder and even briefly sat on the bed without problem . Assembly took like 2 hours with 2 people. One person assembly would be hard and u need to have a platform/ cabinet/ ladder to help hold on to the loft bed pieces. But all in all, instruction is easy to follow, wood feels solid and sturdy ( our navy beds are up for a month and dont have wood cracking problem like the other reviewer. theirs may actually be paint cracking?), also great design! Oh and my 2 kids love it!
Maybe I was lucky. both of the loft beds arrived with fine packaging, wood is fine with only minor not/so/smooth area on the inside of 1 ladder and no dent/ chip/ missing parts! Great Value.
Great Space Saving Loft Bed!
