Its my daughters bed, so she says its completely awesome and she loves it! The space under it for a desk and bookshelf (both of which we purchased separately) is great for her and leaves a lot of space in the room that she is in. For a standard 8/foot ceiling room, there is ample room for her to climb up and get into bed without whacking her head against the ceiling. Shes 8 years old.
From my perspective, it was easy to put together and is really sturdy. The option to put the ladder on either end of the bed is great so that we could put it anywhere we want without the ladder sticking out into the middle of the room.
UPDATE:
Bringing it down 1 star, as I recommend putting extra 1x4 boards between the ones that come with the set for under the mattress. The space between them is just too wide. Even for kids, when climbing up and walking on their knees they kind of need to be careful where there is not that extra support between the boards. Its nothing major, just not enough support for growing kids who will use the bed for several years.
