The bed is inexpensive for what it does, and the instructions to put it together were clear and it arrived with no pieces missing. As it arrives, you really have to piece it together, but it was rewarding when it is done, and I was impressed by the ingenious way they set it up to be able to be packaged flat and yet result in a fully functional bunk bed.
My daughter used it for 2.5 years. One down side is that it really squeaks, especially if you climb up to the top bunk. It can also be difficult for some people to make it to the top bunk since the ladder is straight up not angled. For comfort, she ended up mostly sleeping on the pulled out bottom bunk. We also bought a thick futon for the bottom, and it may work better with a thinner futon.
When we put in new carpeting we had to get the bed out of the room, so I partially disassembled it. It was handy having the instructions, but one bolt got bent in the process (hint loosen all the bolts all over before you start taking it apart) and we had lost one futon holder. To my pleasant surprise, is replacing them for free.
The bed was great for sleepovers and my daughter kept her stuffed animals in the top bunk when she didnt have a friend over. Weve switched her over to another bed, which is smaller and that she likes better and put this in the guest bedroom. Id say its great for guests (particularly the child kind) and it is rather satisfying to put together and is excellent, but if I buy a bunk bed again, I may go for a wooden one or one with easier access to the top bunk. Very helpful.
Just a tip! Make sure not to tighten the bolts all the way until you have the complete section that you are working on assembled. Keeps sections from binding. Saves on frustration. Thought its rated for the properly for the weights top and or the bottom bunk, I made support legs out of black pvc pipe for the bottom section. Now the rail is strong enough to stand on! Very compact.
This would be 5 stars if the trundle I purchased with it had actually fit under the bed without having to remove the wheels
Very sturdy. Easy to put together by yourself. Very nice product!
Not 5 stars because there were a few knicks and scratches. Not too noticeable after assembly. Easy to fix if I wanted too.
Assembly is pretty straight forward. Instructions were only pictures though. Sub/par labeling on wood pieces. Great labeling on hardware parts. To save time and frustration, after the first step I took five minutes to put labeled pieces in numerical/alphabetical order, and mark unlabeled parts and put them in order, which expedited the next several steps since not searching for parts all over while flipping back n forth between the instructions and the identification of parts page, because several pieces look very similar.
Would still recommend for the price. My expectations for self assembly products may be skewed, because I pretty much only purchase self/assembly products, so I have a lot of experience with them. You have to know going into the sale that there will be minor cosmetic touch ups after assembly. My expectation is that during assembly, the material is strong enough to not cause any more damage, especially as it relates to the sturdiness of it. And this bed met that expectation. Simple to put together.
This bed was perfect! It came quickly and packaged well. It definitely requires two people and took us about an hour to assemble. It is very sturdy! My daughter loves to play underneath. We ended up putting a rug and some small chairs (and the dog) underneath this really helped save on floor space in her room. It does not shake or wobble at all and its very easy for her to get up and down and not too high for us to worry about her being up there shes only 5. Well made just what I was looking for!
This was cheap in price but not cheap in quality. Very sturdy and easy to put together. Great for a small room and where a regular bunk bed would just be too high. My kids love it. This item was correct.

Clever design, but squeaky bed

Squeaky Bunk Bed

Its a good value! Very Happy!

Worth every penny

Prefect height
Kids absolutely love it and we like it because not extremely high! Smart design.
Looks good. Solid wood! Sturdy!
