I have co/slept with all my children. Circumstances have made it difficult for my two youngest to transition to sleeping by themselves. I decided to try a bunk to help with the process. So far, so good! I reviewed SO MANY BEDS! I checked local stores and only one had anything that would work for us that wouldnt break the bank for me. It happened to be the same design like this one, but it was 100 more.
I assembled most of this bed alone. It took me several hours and my thumbs and fingers were fairly sore, but I did it. Everything fit perfectly. The only part I asked for help with was putting the top on. I ended up using my drill (very carefully and SLOWly) because there are an insane amount of screws. All needed to help keep it sturdy, but my hands and wrists would not take it.
The last thing is that I am not a small person and I have a heavy mattress for the bottom. I have had ZERO problems with the bed AND there is still room for me to turn over comfortably. I cant sit up under the top bunk though. I am positive that is because of the thickness of my mattress. This is an excellent bed that I am looking forward to having for years! Thank you!
Sturdy bed
