Easy assembly, it took me and my friend 2 hours to assemble. Make sure that when your assembling you have the right parts in the exact spot bc ladder placement. We accidentally switched the two bottom side rails and had to quickly switch them around once we noticed.
As others have noted this product does have an awful smell that lingers, weve had this product set up for 3 days and i can still smell it upon entering the room even w the windows open.
After assembly I got on the top bunk to do a safety test to make sure it was sturdy before my kids used it. Although it did hold me just fine while lying down ( 170lbs) , when I got on the bed the pressure from me mounting the bed in a kneeling position caused the slat underneath me to make some sketchy cracking noise. As others have noted I added an extra set of slats to the top bunk. I had them from our old bed, but if your buying this I suggest ordering an extra set of slats and doubling up top.
Lastly, the side rails of the bed have weirdly sharp edges. The entire bed actually had sharp edges. I wish they were more rounded edges on the wood pieces.
My 4 y/o can get up using the awkward ladder just fine, and I love that I can kiss her goodnight on the on the top bunk very easily without having to climb it
Love this bed! My toddler was so excited! Only reason I say 4 and not 5 stars is the top step to the ladder is a little tricky for kid since its so close to bed itself. Super sturdy.
I was looking for something simple and black. Hard to find separate beds that look like these so I went with the bunk beds and separated. They a great! Kids love them as well. The screws were a bit tuff to get in, in some areas of the headboard but nothing I couldnt handle on my own.
Its great for my kids and they love it, but the wood planks that support the mattresses have been a problem and a pain. Half of them werent long enough and several of them snapped when my two year old (23 pounds) laid on it for the first time (top and bottom). We had to replace them for ones at Home Depot but since then its been great.
The screws supplied for the two little vertical bars that tie together the middle of the safety rails on the top bunk are too short. I had to buy 8 x 1/1/2 inch screws to properly fasten those two parts. See picture.
The Allen/hex key that comes with the kit is rubbish and started to strip out some of the screw heads. Fortunately I had a proper 3mm one that saved the day.
The wood had one saw mark and some other dings and scratches. I was mostly able to hide these imperfections by making those pieces face the wall. I recommend the plain unstained/ look because these imperfections are less noticeable.
In my opinion, the beds need more cross slats to support the mattress. They didnt break, but the mattress did sag between slats. So I bought more for about 50 from the Wood to the World store on , product title Bed Slats Solid Pine Wood Slats Twin Bed Mattress Support Wooden Slats 39 in Long x 2.75 in Wide x 0.65 in Depth Pack of 13 Count Single Bed Replacement Parts Custom Size Cutting Service (Twin 39 in). They look identical and came with screws. I probably could have used shorter than 39 inch slats, but I got them a little long and cut them myself.
Would have given it a 5 star but for some reason one of the screws didnt went all the way in where it was supposed to go. Over all is great I think, building instructions where easy to follow.
Perfect but took more than a month to get here, we almost cancelled it more than once but waited because we bought it on sale and it was a good price. The bed is super sturdy, looks pretty, good height and quality too.
Very sturdy. Fairly easy to put together. Kids love it (thats the most important). I am 59 and I felt asleep one night at the bunk bed and was perfect for me as well.

Awesome loft bed

Great beds for kids!

Youll need to replace the wood panels that support the mattress

Great with some tweaks: Needs more slats

Strong material

Good but took forever to get delivered

Love it.
