Im glad I read the reviews first to not tighten everything all the way until the end. I was able to put this together by myself by pinning one side between the wall and the bed. It is wobbly up top so definitely needs the anchors. I did not like the anchors provided so Im going to get some more. I love the space underneath. My kids love the set up so far.
My son wanted to make the most sense out of a small bedroom. Hes in college now and used to bunk beds and loft beds. We purchased this bed and hired someone to put it together instead of my son for security and peace of mind And its great! My son is 20 years old and sleeps in it when he is home from college. He has a desk underneath and has had no complaints! Great purchase!
Easy to assemble, works great in the boys shared room. The ladder bars arent the most comfortable to climb up and down especially first thing in the morning. Also they have to climb over the railing to get to the ladder so half sleepy little kids are at a fall risk for this part. The height of the top bunk rail is great for safety though, no one is falling out of the bed. Seems fairly sturdy.
Was easy to assemble. Had a large scratch on leg.
Should include extra straps to mount to wall or better quality. Inly came with two and one came apart when screwing into wall. Need extra now.
PACKAGING: This bed is well packaged, and came in a relatively small box considering how large the final piece is.
ASSEMBLY: Against my better judgment, but in the interest of time, I put this together by myself. It took about 3.5 hours total. The instructions were decent, but there were a couple pieces I had to redo because the diagram wasnt very clear on which way to turn the piece and I was in a hurry so I missed it until I tried to attach the next piece. Placing the slats underneath was a bear. The plastic squares that close up the openings to keep the slats in place were brutal on the fingers. I was afraid to use a hammer because I didnt want to break them, but they were so hard to lock into place I was nearly in tears. I tried starting from different angles and it didnt seem to make much of a difference. Maybe wear gloves for that step?
STURDINESS: This generally feels pretty sturdy. I love how many slats there are to support the mattress, so sagging should not be an issue. It does creak a bit and Im slightly bummed by that.
SIZE: Im not sure if the mattress space is tighter than it should be or if the mattress I bought is slightly larger than it should be, but there is ZERO space to comfortably make the bed. The sheets are just kind of crammed into place. That is the most aggravating part of this bed, but again Im not sure if its the beds fault or the mattress.
COMFORT: As others have stated, the ladder rungs are very painful on a bare foot. After a couple weeks I decided to hack around that. (See video in this review) For 2 at Lowes you can buy a foam pipe cover and cut it to size for each rung, and the bottom frame. I slid those over the rungs and they made a significant improvement in comfort, but felt dangerous because they spun around. So I grabbed double/sided grip tape used to keep area rugs in place, and cut into the appropriate size strips and placed them under the foam on each rung. Problem solved! Now more comfortable and safer.
The bed is great quality the height is perfect. My only set back is the latter. I wish they had a more comfortable step. The bars are hard on the feet. Weve improvised with some padding. It didnt acure to me the steps would be painful until it was in use.

Perfect for a small room and college student!

Worth your money
Very hard to build
This was very complicated to build but very cute!
Easy, sturdy, but painful steps
Product was easy to assemble, very sturdy and looks great. Only issue is the ladder with round steps. Painful and requires some type of foam
Aming!!
This bed was easy to build, with very good instructions. It is safe, sturdy my kids absolutely love it. Would 100 recommend!

Almost perfect
The bed is great quality the height is perfect. My only set back is the latter. I wish they had a more comfortable step. The bars are hard on the feet. Weve improvised with some padding. It didnt acure to me the steps would be painful until it was in use.
