My wife and I bought this set for our young boys. They loved it! It Is easy to set up, you just have to pay attention to detail. We use the beds as two singles and they are extremely sturdy.
Okay this isnt perfect but what do you expect for $200? Sure $700 will get you something easier to get into but this is pretty sturdy and works. The worst part about putting this together was the clips for the rods that go under the mattress. They are WAY too difficult to put in (and annoying. That alone knocks off a star. Otherwise its decent. The stairs hurt my feet a little but its fine for kids; a more square/less rounded rung system would be nice for little more cost. Its quite tall and a pretty good buy. The design looks better than it functions but again kids are tolerant and this will hold up to 300lbs which is one of the better design points.
My 6 year old loves the top bunk and my 2 year old loves the bottom, theyre sturdy and can take my 350lb boyfriend getting on them. Great price, great quality,shipped fast!
The final result of this bed is an A+. But getting there was difficult. The instructions are terrible and there are a million parts. The UP side and the Down sides are not marked nor are the Ladder and non-ladder sides. So, we did make some mistakes in the assembly. At the end it was all put together and we realized we put an H bar on upside down but it was too late and we werent about to disassemble the whole thing. Luckily, we have a friend with power tools who showed up to drill a hole so we could anchor the last part of the ladder. So, in the end, an all-day effort with some frustrating mistakes due to poor instructions still resulted in a satisfaction. The bed is sturdy and perfect for a boys room. I dont know that well ever turn them into two twins but the flexibility to do so is what sold me on this particular bed.
Bought this bed for my 2 boys ages 8 and 10. Its sturdy and stands up to the climbing and jumping from the boys. This is strictly for kids!! I would not put an adult or any person over 125 pounds in these bunks - The support bars are made of plastic and probably would not hold up anything heaver than that.
I was buying these bunk beds for my kids. It looked great and the price was good 150 at the time. When it came to putting it together it was a nightmare the holes in the poles were either missing or in the wrong place. It is going back of course I have to wait forever for a refund. And I had to buy my kids a new bunk bed. Check the pieces before u build it and avoid my nightmare. I had it partially built before I realized the problem and putting it together is time consuming.
First, let me say: The price of this item on , combined with super cheap overnight shipping via Prime, made for an aming value. We purchased this bunk bed to replace a bulkier metal bunk bed that we already had set up. It filled that purpose nicely.
In a nutshell...
Pros:
* Very sturdy.
* Includes tools required to build it. (I wouldnt recommend using a power drill as I was able to strip a few of the screws using the hand tool
* Packaged well enough that there were no scuffs on the paint.
* A lot of space between the top and bottom bunk beds.
* About 6 smaller in length and width than our previous bunk bed.
* Converts to two single twin sized beds.
Cons:
* Extremely time consuming to set up. It took us about 3 hours.
* Included instructions arent explicit about which parts go where in relation to the mattress frames. Luckily, we read the reviews ahead of time and worked it out based on the diagrams in the instructions (THANKS REVIEWERS!. This seems like something that could easily be resolved by putting letter stickers on the frame pieces, like they do on all of the other pieces, and referencing each piece explicitly in the instructions.
* Tons of pieces.
* Over 100 screws to screw in by hand.
* At least 29 pieces to the frame.
* A ton of support struts and additional plastic bits to go along with them.
* The great packaging means TONS of trash. Every piece of metal is in its own plastic sheath to protect the paint. There is a lot of Styrofoam and cardboard as well.
This bed is a PROJECT to put together. I have owned two bunk beds like this in the past and the bed platforms were welded together resulting in only about 8-10pcs to assemble. This bed comes with many, many more pieces - each slat supporting the mattress must individually be assembled - a time consuming process but once assembled this is a nice bed for the kids. My 4-year old simply loves it and I like the spacious feel on the bottom bunk. Plenty of headroom for the person sleeping on the bottom and the bed has a nice solid feel.
Bought these for my two little ones and they are a great product for the price you pay. price wont kill you and assembly not hard just takes alittle time.
Love that you can take them apart if you want to. Very sturdy. My personal only complaint is the ladder, I wish it came with some padding or was flat steps
not the round ones. I always find myself hurting my bottom of my feet when I climb them, as I am always barefoot in my house. For the kids Im sure this is
not a problem.
This is a great bed for the price. The kids love it. The ladder rungs are a bit small painful to climb up for adult feet, but no issues for the kids, which are the ones that need to climb in.

Cant beat the price!
