Honestly a bit wobbly, but youll get used to it over time. The frame makes it incredibly difficult to put the side guards on, so I just left them off. Maybe youll have better luck. I am not happy.
I really wanted to love this. Im in a very small 2nd bedroom and had very fond memories of my loft bed in college. However, it turns out what they say is true, and you cant go back again.
The positives: Went together fast (though, I paid Home Services to assemble it for me, because ly. But it only took the two young guys who showed up to do it about an hour and a half). Its fairly sturdy, though it does sway a little when you climb the ladder. This was super alarming to me on day one, but by day four Im basically used to it. Im sure if it were secured to the wall it wouldnt move at all. The ladder was painful on the feet at first but you figure that out after a day or two as well. Doesnt shift at all while Im in it. Lots of room underneath, and you can choose to leave the side guard rails off.
The significant downside: I discovered that there is not enough mattress support; Ive been waking up every day with a sore back. As a temporary measure, I grabbed the bed slats from my old bed to stick on top of the platform and no go. While the platform from outer edge to outer edge is the standard Full sizing of 53 x 75, theres a slight lip, meant to hold the mattress in, I assume // meaning you only have 52, unless you want your bed slats sitting precariously on top of the recessed platform instead of held in by the edging. Oh, wait, you cant even do that, because the screws to keep the ladder on are right along the edge as well, making your usable platform dimensions 52 x 74. It is beyond frustrating, because of course every bunkie board I look at is 53 x 75 / because thats Full sizing! I dont know what Im going to do, at this point. Easy to install and strong.
was missing ONE screw, but it wasnt as vital as we thought. The ladders are more narrow than expected
overall, its okay. Sturdy and doesnt make squeaks. Strong one.
Assembly is a bit tough, but the majority of the holes line up correctly (had problem with 2) We like the bed, but even though its rated for 200+ lb., the end my daughter used to climb up began bowing in after just a couple of days. (Shes older weighs 140 lb). We had to buy a ladder. Make sure you double check the height.
This was pretty simple to assemble but Im not impressed with the overall quality. Its very wobbly when climbing the ladder and although it holds my 6 year old just fine, I would not feel safe on it myself.
The space underneath is the perfect height, so thats good. I just wish the side railing was a bit taller and that it felt more sturdy.
For the sheer fact that the package was damaged and there were NO instructions. Had to look up instructions on Home Depots website and those instructions were wrong. Had to do some figuring out in order to put it together right. Shame because the reviews here were so good. Hopefully it all works out and my daughter loves the bed.

NO instructions. A bit stressful. But nice once done.
