Im 26 weeks pregnant and assembled this bunk with my 10 year old daughter! It was fairly simple to put together. I got a few pieces turned around requiring some additional time, but overall it took us about 2.5 hours. I would recommend laying out all the pieces alphabetically to check that you have all pieces first. I would also recommend an electric screwdriver/drill to attach the wood slats that hold the mattress up at the last step. They didnt have Pre drilled holes for the slats to connect to, so that cut the time at least in half by using the drill.
This bunk bed definitely has pros and cons. Pros: the shipping was more than a week ahead of schedule, it was all in one box, the scale is great for a small bedroom despite the bottom bunk not being on the floor. Cons: the box was very heavy/awkward/and damaged, the hardware pack was mislabeled ma it initially appear there was not enough of certain parts, even after figuring out the hardware mislabeling, we discovered that we got a few dowels the wrong length and one long bolt that was cross threaded. All in all, the beds came together in a little under two hours, they look great and are very sturdy. I would just caution buyers that this could be very frustrating for someone who isnt generally comfortable with putting things together with minimal instruction. If you need easy, this may or may not be for you.
I cant speak for assembly as my kids dad set these up. I bought two, specifically because
1. They allow for 8 inch mattresses
2. They have higher weight limits than most bunks
So far my kids are happy and so am I
The quality is excellent. All the materials are solid wood and the hardware is sufficient (keeping assembly as easy as possible while still keeping things secure). I appreciate that they dont skimp on the number of slats and that both beds incorporate a center support beam under the slats for additional safety and support. The center beam design also allows for a trundle to slide under the bed since there are no center support legs.
Multiple pieces were split, this is a three adult project. You NEED power tools.
I guess for the price you get what you get, but my goodness I wouldnt get this again
I assembled it by myself and I am a woman. I spent 1 hour and half. It is well instructed and easy to assemble. It seems sturdy. I bought this bunk bed for two adults, but I am following the limit weight that is around 250lb on the top. I hope it works!
Great for smaller spaces, these bunk beds are a clean and simple design that arent chunky at all. Takes two people to assemble, but its not overly difficult. FYI, packages appeared as lost, arrived late and what appeared to be damaged / boxes are huge and very long and looked like theyd been run over by a truck and then wrapped back together with clear tape. I was afraid the contents would be junk, but they were just fine.
My husband was very skeptical about buying on line and we made sure that we could return if we did not like it. This is not going back! My husband ( who is very handy) was able to assemble it on his own, he just needed me and my daughter to lift the bunk on top. We were so impressed with the sturdiness! Many reviews mention a smell, it is there but I find the smell of cut wood pleasant and it is fading quickly. My neighbor was so impressed she is buying one for her home.
The bed was mostly easy to put together. Some parts were mislabeled, but we were able to figure it out. The box was delivered almost falling open, but no parts were missing. The bed is great, its bigger than what I thought it would be and our regular size twin mattresses leave a slight three inch gap at the bottom. The only bad thing about the bed is that it smells strongly of paint still. My kids had to sleep with the door open, all fans on, and Im letting their room air out today. Hoping it dies down by tonight.

Very sturdy

Ladder Holes not aligned
The only issue was the ladder holes werent lined up correctly. One inch off on the top two holes so the ladder steps have a slant to them.
Solid, Great Value

Very very very difficult assembly

Strong paint smell, alright otherwise
