We looked at many many many bunk beds. They really range in price and often the less expensive ones are not very stable. That is not the case with this one. It is very stable and is an excellent value for the money. We are using it at a second home it is perfect and we didn't spend a few thousand dollars. It took the three of us (yes our 9 year old even helped us put it together) about an hour to assemble. The only annoyance are the little clips that secure the support bars you place the mattress on, they are tough to snap in, but not a deal breaker.
We love the bed, it's just my daughter can't use it until we recieve the parts that are missing. Some plastic clamps that hold the bars together is missing. As well as the plugs. My son's bed arrived with them but not this one.
We love the mint color, and love that it's sturdy and doesn't take over the room. We were looking for something light that wouldn't feel like we had too much furniture in the kids shared bedroom, and this is it!
We bought the bunk bed and lived with that for a while. Then we easily separated the bunk beds and the kids have two single beds.
NEXT we're thinking about converting them into two loft beds.
Wonder if we can buy a conversion kit?? Is this possible??
We love this bed! My ten year old daughter and I had no problem putting it together, except I learned (and apparently this is a great life skill) not to tighten all the bolts down until it's put together that way pieces slide into place easier.
I feel safe with her on the bed and she loves the extra space in her room.
We love this bed! Full disclosure, we haven't actually bunked them yet, so that will be the true test. But as separate twins beds, they have held up great for the 5 years we've had them. Also this bed is one of the very few (if any) that can actually be assembled as separate twins AND don't look strange, like with one bed having much higher posts (that would be later used when bunked) or sits higher off the floor than the other bed)!!!
*Parents, this is huge!*
Don't waste money on a toddler bed that your kid will grow out of in a couple years! We got this bed right before baby #2 arrived. We assembled the top bunk on the floor, (which already had guard rails!), and moved our 2.5 year old out of the crib and into a "big boy" bed. Then, when #3 came along, we assembled the other bed, moved the oldest into that and the toddler into the bed with rails! Oldest is now 7, we hope to bunk the bed soon.
We also bought a second bunk bed as we now have 2 girls and will do the same for them. The bed is modern, gender neutral, and a nice bright white that goes with anything! Win! Win!
We love this bed. It is very sturdy and love the color. The flat steps are so much better than rounded ones that come on other metal beds. It came in one week and was very well-packed. The directions were very clear and it was easy to assemble. We added a curtain to the front to close off the bottom part. This was even easier than I had planned since the bed came with brackets that are intended to anchor it to the wall (which I didn't feel was necessary to do since this bed is very stable and sturdy). I used the anchors and turned them toward the ends of the bed and screwed in closet rod brackets from Lowes. I then cut the metal closet rod from Lowes to size and hung it in the brackets. We also added twinkle lights hung by command hooks under the bed and hung some of her artwork with magnets since the bed is metal. My daughter loves it!
We love this bed. We've had it for 2 years now, still going strong, not wobbly at all. Construction was a little time consuming but not overly difficult for 2 people. We placed our kids desks underneath and there's plenty of head space for both my husband and I when we sit there but probably not going to suit someone over 6' tall. I would definitely recommend this bed but know that it's a pain to change the sheets and if you have young kids, it's probably useful to have a step-stool for the parents to be able to give hugs goodnight. We have the IKEA BEKVAM and it's the perfect height. I'd also recommend using a 6" thick mattress with it.

Nice solid/simple bunk bed

We love it. He's tickled with it. Was easy to assemble and Chris did most of it himself.
Missing parts.
We love the bed, it's just my daughter can't use it until we recieve the parts that are missing. Some plastic clamps that hold the bars together is missing. As well as the plugs. My son's bed arrived with them but not this one.
Great bed, sturdy, not bulky

Best bunk that also works as separate twins.

Great bunk bed!
We love this bunk bed. It’s sturdy and has the rustic/vintage look we wanted. We’ve received many compliments. Our boys love it too!
