The bed was great except for the ladder. I had to buy pool noodles and cut them up to place over the round parts you walk on. It would hurt my sons feet so bad to walk up it. I also could not stand on it with out pain. The bars are round and should be flat. Also there is no where to get into the bed once you on the ladder you have to put your body over the railing. That is probably safe while sleeping, but not while climbing over the high rail. Otherwise I would have given it a 5 star rating. All the pieces were there and though it is time consuming to put together, it looks really good and is sturdy.
Great bed, but ladder hurts your feet
