This is a very nice bed. It was easy to assemble but needs two people. The wood is good and have no concerns of it falling apart or collapsing. I was looking for something that would hold an adult and child. This was it with a 400 lb limit. It eases my mind that it wont come crashing down if we climbed up with our kid. It does shake a little when you move while on it but is expected with a bed as its not anchored to the wall nor does it need to be. The shelves are nice and provides added storage. You can put the shelves and ladder on either side but you have to decide that when youre building it. We have the ladder on the left and the shelves on the right. You can put the ladder and shelves on the same side if you wanted it that way. We initially bought a twin mattress that was too thick. We ended up returning and getting an 8 mattress. I would not recommend anything more than 8. Overall, we are happy with the purchase. I Love it.
