This was a surprise for my sons fifth birthday and it couldnt have been a bigger hit. Took me a solid 4 hours to assemble but I was able to do it solo. I gave it a four out of five for sturdiness because its not super heavy, never going to shake like the one I had as a kid but its definitely very solid. The cloth pieces that cover the openings are attached with sticker backed Velcro that didnt stay on very long, probaby should have hooks or something instead. Other than that no complaints, very satisfied with it.
Purchased this for my grandsons. Delivered on time. My son-in-law and daughter assembled in approximately 3 hours. This bed is well thought out! Plenty safe up top and bottom. Loved the finish and curtains! My kids love it also!!!
As with anything foreign made, the directions could have been a little better. They were pretty straightforward for the most part. A little difficult to get the mattresses in once finished. Kids love it
I put this bed up a week ago. So far, the best part by far has been my kids absolutely ecstatic response to it. It doubles as two play forts, sometimes they (3 and 6) play together in one bunk, sometimes they separate, but they still spend a ton of time it it. They absolutely love this bed.
Im happy with it, too. Not pictured are the huge, 6-inch bolts that hold it very securely together. Ive climbed up into the top bunk with both my kids, for a total load of about 250 pounds, and the bed didnt wobble a bit. The guard rails go all the way around the top bunk, and, with the five-inch mattresses I put on, theres plenty of space between the top of the mattress and the top of the rails to keep kids from falling off.
I put the bed together myself in a little over three hours. The parts are all individually labeled and the directions are clear and mostly easy to follow. I confused myself for a few minutes by holding the window assembly sideways, and I would have appreciated if the holes for the screws for the roof and window were either pre-drilled or even just marked with ink, but I was able to eyeball those bits, and they came together sturdy and straight.
It takes a lot of torque to tighten down the Allen bolts. If you have a really top-end drill, that might work, but I dont and wouldnt recommend trying it. I also dont recommend using the throwaway Allen wrenches in the box. Use a good Allen wrench with a comfortable handle, and youll move faster and save yourself all sorts of pain.
There was one bolt where the hole for the Allen wrench wasnt cut all the way, so my Allen wrench wouldnt turn it. Since theres no extra bolts or screws included, I put the one bolt on a guardrail against the wall where its unlikely to face much abuse, and tightened it down with pliers. This was the only obvious miss on quality of the product.
One other possible con is, the bunks use screwed-down slats, and the bottom mattress is about two inches off the ground, so I foresee having issues cleaning up dust under the bottom bunk.
Those are the only negatives at this point, and I think theyre very minor. I fully expect my kids will outgrow sleeping in bunk beds at all, long before the bed itself develops any issues that require it to be taken down. This is a solid product that I feel safe letting my kids sleep on.
