I bought this bed for my 3-year-old son, as his first big boy bed. I was able to put it together myself without difficulty. Its a good sturdy construction (for what its made of. This is not solid wood were talking about here), and the finish looks great. I only have two qualms about this bed, and theyre minor. First, the bed is, all around, just a smidgen bigger than a standard twin mattress, so you have to think about that when deciding what linens to choose. Second, the drawers are not on rollers. Its just a plastic slider piece mounted into a slot in the wood, so it has the tendency to stick a little, particularly in humid weather. However, I have found that a little olive oil does help this problem somewhat. I would still recommend this bed for anyone looking for a good, sturdy, inexpensive childs bed.
We bought two for our twin granddaughters. The price was much better than at the department store website we checked. Assembly was pretty easy, the directions were accurate and all of the parts were there.
The beds are a little shorter than we expected - the dimensions in the bed description are accurate, we just didnt pay attention. Actually the low height is good for us since we bought these for preschoolers.
The drawer handles stick out and have caused a few scratches/bruises so we might replace them with something rounder. These beds might not last into high school, but we should at least make it through elementary school.
We would definitely choose them again.
Easy to assemble and looks great! To be honest, I didnt expect much due to the price and because photos sometimes dont tell the truth. So far it has held up really well (about 1 year now), and looks great. Its simple but modern and the drawers underneath are a great feature. The only (tiny) issue weve had is hitting legs or snagging pants on the drawer handles since they are so low. You seem to forget they are there, especially when making the bed :\",,2013/5/2 0:00,,US,enable,0
