This is a pretty solid kids bed. Putting it together took about 45 minutes and all of the pieces fit pretty well. The only complaint is that the slats arent long enough to hit their pre-drilled holes on the frame. We ended up tossing those out and getting some slats that fit properly. The other option would have been to drill some holes at an angle to fasten the slats to the frame. The wood is pretty lightweight and the foot board cracked in one place when we were putting it together, but it doesnt seem to be harming the structural integrity of the bed, just the appearance, and lets face it, what furniture survives prolonged contact with kids?
It seems sturdy, so far it has handled my kid jumping in it and it didnt fall apart when I sat on the bed with my kid.
Its high enough that we can fit some plastic tubs designed for under bed storage beneath it, but low enough that if your kid falls out of bed they probably be just fine.
Its a pretty decent, basic bed for a couple hundred bucks.
